  1. Thank you.

    Honestly, it is a bit disappointing. 

    I have no idea if this is what is going on here and I'm speaking for myself, so please don't assume I have some inside knowledge: I understand why the company updates the software once in a blue moon considering that I pay for it years ago for a lifetime license, and the license wasn't even that expensive (around $50 I think). However, I do remember at the time the CEO came out and wanted to move to a subscription model, and he got a loooot of push back...and now this version of the software we all use is, let's say, low priority when it comes to bug fixes and general updates.

    Regardless if what I just said is true or not, I am all for another version of resilio sync on a subscription model that is frequently updated and is not enterprise (connect). I was hoping Resilio for Small Business is the version but it doesn't look like it is

  2. Does anybody knows if Resilio for Small Business version is different than Sync Home for Personal Use ?

    what I mean by that, is, for personal use the version has been 2.7.3 for a long time. If I were to start paying for the small business version, do I get a more "up-to-date" version or is the same (2.7.3).

    All this is under the assumption that Resilio for home and Resilio for small business are basically the same software. from docs it looks exactly the same

     

    I hope the question makes sense,

    Syncthing is open source, so there are 3rd party tools that do just that. I wanted to say that Syncthing can do that, but it's true that the software can't do that by default.

     Personally i'm a heavy user of selective sync and Syncthing is NOT an alternative...for me.

  4. i'm running Sync Home Pro on MacOS Monterey without a problem. yes, the software hasn't been upgraded in a while...but to be fair is working (at least for me) without issues. not working for the company of trying to make you stay, just curious: any specific problems that made you move away from Sync Home Pro? 

    keep seeing references to Syncthing. i looked into it and, for me, the showstopper is that they don't support selective sync. based on the couple of feature requests that people have opened for Syncthing to support selective sync...seems that the maintainers don't really understand why one wants something like that and they pretty much flatly said they won't implement it. again, show stopper for ME, doesn't mean is not a good solution for others

  5. I have a quick question about the non-subscription license, i don't see an answer to this question anywhere, if there is you have my apologies.

     

    How is the non-subscription license going to work when you guys move to 2.3 version? will it work only for 2.2x and i need to buy a new non-subscription license on 2.3 (or whatever major release you consider)?. 

     

    hope my question makes sense.

  6. Thank you for the info, it makes a lot of sense so i try it. i started the daemon 2 days ago, got a bit busy with other stuff and just left it running without checking it.

     

    i checked the daemon couple of minutes ago (again, after couple of days) and is gone. nothing in the logs to explain what happen, the daemon just crashed like 10 hours ago after running for a day or so. i restarted the daemon and i'm going to try again after i leave it for a little while to do it's thing.

     

    in terms of resources my system is decent (16GB ram, quad core proc). it is a NAS system so i have quite the number of files. now, i haven't configured btsync in any way (can't get to the UI to do it and i don't want to handcraft a config file) so i haven't specified any shared folders. this is the initial start for me to get to the UI and configure folders.

     

    i do see this in lsof which i'm not sure what to make of it

     

    btsync  9741 root  rtd     VDIR              0,131      512        2 /

  7. i wonder if is just me, but i can't get the gui to work on FreeBsd X64. I'm trying to get btsync to work on Nas4Free, and yes i can get 1.x btsync version to work just fine.

     

    what i can't get to work is 2x version, more precise the GUI doesn't seem to respond, my browser just waits for a response for a long time and nothing comes back.

     

    here's what i did:

     

    1. download the latest version of btsync 2.0 from  https://download-cdn.getsyncapp.com/stable/FreeBSD-x64/BitTorrent-Sync_freebsd_x64.tar.gz. I just re-execute all these steps today (March 7, 2015).

    2. untar and start using this command line:

     # ./btsync --webui.listen 0.0.0.0:8888

    3. everything starts up fine, i can see these things in .sync/sync.log

    i'm not too worried about those errors, i got those on a different device/build (WD MyPassport wireless/ARM linux) and they seem to be part of the first startup. after the first startup everything seems to be working normally.

     

    4. when i go to http://192.168.1.240:8888 the browser just spins, nothing comes back. i'm looking right now at the browser and it's been waiting for at least 20 minutes. i tried with Chrome (my default browser) and also with Safari. same behaviour. i have btsync 2.0 installed on a couple of other devices and everything works just fine. as far as i can tell this seems to be a problem with the FreeBSD x64 build.

     

    i can see that the browser actually connects on the port, is just that the server doesn't responds for some reasons (or waits on something?)

    any idea what i'm doing wrong? i'm inclined to say the FreeBSD x64 build has a problem but i can't prove that

  8. i wonder if is just me, but i can't get the gui to work on FreeBsd X64. I'm trying to get btsync to work on Nas4Free, and yes i can get 1.x btsync version to work just fine.

     

    what i can't get to work in 2x version, more precise the GUI doesn't seem to respond, my browser just waits for a response for a long time and nothing comes back.
