Thanks for your help. Anyone with the answer?

Thanks; but I'm not using desktop version, but the server version running on my Ubuntu server. Therefore the webgui does NOT have a "right click" function where I can click on "sync all". Where do I find this feature?

My complete config.json file: { "device_name": "my-server-name", "listening_port" : 34582, // 0 - randomize port/* storage_path dir contains auxilliary app files if no storage_path field: .sync dir created in the directory where binary is located. otherwise user-defined directory will be used */ "storage_path" : "/home/rogier/.sync",/* set location of pid file */// "pid_file" : "/var/run/btsync/btsync.pid",/* use UPnP for port mapping */ "use_upnp" : false,/* limits in kB/s. 0 - no limit */ "download_limit" : 0, "upload_limit" : 0,/* proxy configuration */// "proxy_type" : "socks4", // Valid types: "socks4", "socks5", "http_connect".

I want to disable user authentication for the webgui. In my config file I have not set login and password fields. They are commented out. I also tried to set them to nill (login : "") but this does not work. Therefore my question: how can I disable user authentication? "webui" : { "listen" : "0.0.0.0:8888" // remove field to disable WebUI/* preset credentials. Use password or password_hash */// ,"login" : "bla"//,"password" : "bla"// ,"password_hash" : "some_hash" // password hash in crypt(3) format// ,"allow_empty_password" : false // Defaults to true/* ssl configuration */// ,"force_https" : true // disable http// ,"ssl_certificate" : "/path/to/cert.pem"// ,"ssl_private_key" : "/path/to/private.key"}By the way, after changing the config file, I restart btsync service with 'service btsync restart'.

Please see attachment for an example of my problem. On one of three machines (Ubuntu server) the folders are displayed "white" instead of "black" meaning that sync is "delayed" or something. Removing/disconnecting and re-connecting solves the problem, but how can I manually force btsync to start syncing? As you can see the "backups" directory is going well, but the other two are not. Why?

Eventually the files are coming through correct. But why am I getting these errors? What happens "on the way"?

I often get errors like "PIECE 308 FAILED HASH CHECK". What does this mean? Both clients have the same version running.

Ok, thanks. By the way: the following url points to .82 version. http://www.bittorrent.com/sync/downloads/complete/os/windows

I'm using a combination of devices. Linux, Mac and Windows. I've read somewhere that it's best to keep all versions the same. Therefore it's better NOT to upgrade my Windows clients to 1.2.87, right? Any idea when 1.2.87 for linux / mac will be released?

It is important, because new builds usually come with new functionalities. That's why it's important.

I think that's to difficult for simple users.

What exactly do you wish for? I think it's already in place now. If you set up a btsync instance on server 1, which does not relay, etc. and you set up server 2 which syncs only to a specific host (server 1), that's exactly what you mean, right?

Like many people, I'm very interested in new functions of the Bittorrent Sync tool. Is there some kind of roadmap available which gives us insights in: When the next version will be available?What new and improved functions it will contain?etc.Keep up the good work; I'm totally moving all my friends/relatives from Dropbox into btsync. So far no problems! [edit] By the way: the "numbered list"-function on the forum does not work. No numbers can be seen after posting... look at the screenshot:

That's true; the integration with Btsync is great. Hopefully FileRun will make more people use btsync .

Basically every PHP file manager in combination with btsync is equal to Dropbox, right?
