  1. Well I kind of figured it out my self and solved it. It seems that the StreamList file had also com.apple.ResourceFork I just removed it for the list and everything synced perfect. Still don't really know what StreamList file is for though!
  2. Hi I sync across my raspberry pi and my Macbook Everything syncs fine except a single folder wich seems it downloads forever! On the peer status it has 359 files that are all like this one com.apple.ResourceFork. I have put it in the SyncIgnore list but the problem remains. My SyncIgnore list is like this : # .SyncIgnore is a UTF-8 encoded .txt file that helps you specify single files, paths and rules # for ignoring during the synchronization job. It supports "?" and "*" wildcard symbols. # # # OS generated files # .DS_Store .DS_Store? ._* .Spotlight-V100 .Trashes ehthumbs.db desktop.ini Thumbs.db node_modules com.apple.FinderInfo com.apple.metadata:_kMDItemUserTags com.apple.ResourceFork com.apple.metadata:kMDItemFinderComment com.apple.metadata:kMDItemStarRating com.apple.metadata:kMDItemOMUserTagTime com.apple.metadata:kMDItemOMUserTags com.apple.metadata:kMDItemOMUserTagTime can anyone help? Thanks
  3. well another thing I forgot to tell you some mac files or some .picasa.ini (these are hidden you wont see them normally ) wont sync and raspberry seems like indexing forever.(it happened to me) so you have to tweak a little your .syncignore file so it won't sync these things. after the first sync that takes a lot of time if you have many files tha indexing takes about 20 minutes max (to tell you the truth I never measured it, just guessing now).
  4. I have some files bigger than 1 gb . video files , iso's etc they sync just fine
  5. well not much to say here 1)just make sure you mount your harddisk (so you won't have to mount it every time it reboots) 2)change the permissions on your disk so that btsync can write delete etc 3)make btsync auto start .It can be done with a lot of ways but the one I choose is through crontab. Just made a crontab saying to start btsync on boot. And you're set. On my raspberry I also installed minidlna (so I can stream music, pictures and videos across my home) and transmission (so I can download movies and view them through minidlna) I'm telling you raspberry really solved a lot at my place. If you need help I can direct you to some sites or tell you how exactly I did it as for enclosure I use a cheap enclosure from a local store (I live in Greece so by telling you exactly won`t help). But it's pretty chep so my guess is that any one you pick on ebay will do
  6. I have about 200 gb syncing across 2 raspberrys pi , 2 pcs and a macbook. I'm using it for nearly 2 years. No disc crash , no file missing . I have the raspberrys auto mount the disc and auto start btsync (even if the power fails at my home for some reason). One raspberry is at home and the other at my office. I use them as mini servers for btsync and the main pcs and macbook for every change I make. You will not have any problem if you set it right at the beginning
  7. I've been using a raspberry pi wth a usb external disk for almost 2 years now. To manage the power efficiency I plugged them all through a powered usb hub. Since then everything works just fine with no problems. I thing it's a pretty solid solution if you want to plug usb drives that don't come out with their own power.
