Hosting Opera Unite Server

Hello, right now I am in Kyrgyzstan, and we have some issues here with Opera Unite.
first of all, the Internet connection to the World is often instable and slow! Second - for the most internet users it is very expensive!
Is there a way to host a similar service in a local network, so that more people can take advantage of opera Unite even if their internet connection is slow, instable and expensive? Such a thing would help me and my comrades to promote Opera widely in big institutions and if possible we would even host a unite.opera.kg here :-) (if we should find a way to finance it)
Until now I wasn't able to find a way, and as I tested opera Unite in a local network without an internet connection, only some windows runnig services were found, and linux hosts were invisible at all. (ubuntu)

Thanks, but that wasn't my question! I can't use the opera account to upload 2gb of files, where a megabite costs $0.10, because it will cost me 2.000 * $0.10 = $200
If I will use a local Unite server, it would cost me $0, because I would use it locally. And there is a huge difference between $200 and $0.
Sorry for that, but could I receive answers for my question?

PS: it is megabite, because the prices here in Kyrgyzstan really bite. :-)

Very nice! Thanks for the answer, at least I will be able to use it!

But still..... I can do it this way. but how can I do it for a whole company, where users are changing continuously?
What I want to have is that opera still uses the same frontend, but connects to a server in Kyrgyzstan. So that other people can use it. Because in some cases people re even limited to the Kyrgyz network, so they can not connect elsewhere.
If it isn't possible right now, I wish it would become possible in some time.
