[Make btsync start at boot]

You can create a unit file for btsync (probably should be done automatically by the deb package).

 

Create the file: /etc/systemd/system/btsync.service

Containing:

[Unit]
Description=Bittorent Sync service
After=network.target
 
[Service]
Type=forking
User=btsync
Group=btsync
ExecStart=/usr/bin/btsync
Restart=on-abort

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

 

Once that file is in place enabling the service should work

sudo systemctl enable btsync

 

[[Now Implemented!] Add Selective Sync Support On All Platforms]

I understand why this feature is not available on Linux at the moment and agree with above commenters that a "whitelist" or even "blacklist" configuration file for selective sync doesn't seem prohibitively complex in the future.

 

I would also reiterate other posters feelings of annoyance that this limitation was not prominently displayed (is it displayed anywhere? I didn't know prior to finding this thread). I spent valuable time troubleshooting what I thought was an issue with my WebUI (turns out it's a limitation). I understand limitations and appreciate your efforts but communication should not be the point of failure.
