  1. Could you please PM me, we might found a solution but want to test it first. Thanks!
  2. Could you please PM me, so we will narrow down the issue? Thanks.
  3. Yes, we don't have 64 bits version, so you will need to install 32 bit support for your OS. Could you please run sudo apt-get install ia32-libs And check that Sync will work.
  4. We build binaries optimized for latest PPC chips, it seems your PPC doesn't have some of the latest commands. We will see if we could build more general PPC build, that could be used on earlier chips.
  5. It shouldn't break connection, the only thing that comes to my mind, is that due to p2p nature it allocates the all network bandwidth for faster data transfer. So it immediately started synchronization using the all network bandwidth available, so there is no space left for RDP. If this looks like a right case to you, just put limitation to Sync in preferences, so it will be limited.
  6. Could you please give us some background, is it the Windows/Windows, Linux/Mac synchronization?
  7. Thank you for report. We are aware of this issue and it will be fixed.
  8. Let's talk about "unlimited space" for a second, is the 2^305, which is believed the information capacity of universe is truly unlimited? Or googolplex number (10^10^100) represents unlimited storage? Do you believe that any company in the world could hold 2^305 bits of information? Unlimited, for most of the companies mean that you can't get above threshold when your monthly payment doesn't cover their expenses and profit. BitTorrent Sync synchronize your computers, so whatever these computers could hold - this is your limit. For free. Do you need more space? First you need to buy a better computer and then you will get a bigger space, so BitTorrent Sync could deal with it too, for free.
  9. Dropbox does that, for couple of reasons: it saves them money on harddrive space and network traffic. Which actually makes perfect sense. In case of Sync, it might be faster to just transfer the file, rather than calculate difference and then apply it to the file. Having in mind that all files are binary nowadays, this is not as effective as difference for big text files. Anyway we have this in mind, however importance of this feature is questionable, of course if leave aside marketing noise about this feature.
  10. This looks like a complex solution to me SyncApp is designed in a way, that you won't need cloud service in order to synchronize several computers. Cloud service is nice, when you need 24x7 access, but are limited in space, cost you money and you give access to your files to 3rd party companies.
  11. I know that this is possible too Possibility meant not a technical complexity, but rather time constraints we have.
  12. We already have solution, forgot to mention it initially. You will need one computer with static IP address. For the folder, unselect relay server, DHT. And select "predefined hosts" - enter ip:port of the machine. This machine will act as a tracker and will connect peers.
  13. Tracker doesn't know the secret. It knows pairs SHA1(secret):ip.port (of course this is simplified) to connect different peers that use the same secret. And you still have an option to use DHT, to completely avoid central servers. However DHT is slower and not as reliable.
  14. We will check if this is possible.
  15. Thank you for report, we will look to it.
  16. Yes, I am from BitTorrent. You could post bugs here.
  17. Everything that you've mentioned are on our list for next release.
  18. We will revisit secret in next version of the app
  19. The chances are 1 to 10323202537727000
  20. Yes it is enabled. It will work without internet access.
  21. Mobile device support will come soon.
  22. Data will be stored only on your computers. Sync will make sure it is synchronized across your devices. Data in transmit are encrypted with AES 256.
