Dear Tuxpoldo Thank you to provide us this packages. I ran into the same probleme as lux I use ubuntu, I change the file in /ect/btsync to config.gilles.gilles.conf When I run : /etc/init.d/btsync start I get == START =========================== File Name: 'config.gilles.gilles.conf' Name Part: 'config' Credential Part: 'gilles:gilles' Run As User: 'gilles' Run As Group: 'gilles' unfortunatelly btsync stils run under root 946 root 20 0 379m 4036 2144 S 1.0 0.2 1:32.49 btsync-daemon Do you have any idea? By the way shouldn't we run btsync with a new user btsync:btsync? Then we could add basic user to the btsync group. This would be safer than using root and allow a basic user to access the files. ## OK I found the probleme, same solution as LUX worked
