[Question Re N-Way Sync]

As you add machines to the sync, their bandwidth and filesets are added to the available pool to pull from. Depending on the class of connection, you may hit other limits before you hit your bandwidth limit (random seek times on your storage device for example)

It may not get files from all computers simultaneously, but it WILL get multiple files from multiple machines.

[Quickbooks Company Files 'access Denied']

Are the files in use on the main computer?

[Prefilled Sync Folder From Compressed Files, Keep Downloading Everything]

Is it actually showing file transfer on the transfers tab or not?

[Shut Down By Hosting Provider For "torrenting"]

If they're going to block bittorrent sync, they need to block rsync too.

[Shut Down By Hosting Provider For "torrenting"]

Them calling BitTorrent Sync "Torrenting Scripts" indicates that their support and abuse monitoring staff are ignorant as to what BitTorrent Sync actually is.

Sync, under proper operating conditions, for your size of a share will not actually generate high CPU load. They're probably doing something they shouldn't be.

For reference, my system running sync on a celeron E3200 processor (dual core 2.4ghz)

This system has a total of 4 secrets, approximately 150k files, total space over 600GB being managed. I would honestly like to see the CPU usage of the btsync executable on their offending server.

[Will Syncignore Delete Folder Content?]

Adding a folder to syncignore after it's already been synced will not cause it to be deleted. It will only cause it to stop getting/giving updates

[V1.3.94 - Sync Errors? - What Do These Messages Mean? What Should I Do?]

Does the problem persist with .106?

[Download Limit Is Ignored]

By default. There's an advanced setting to allow it to affect lan traffic as well.

[Download Limit Is Ignored]

Do you have devices on the same lan?

[Sync For Playstation?]

[The Sync Erased The Original File And Keep The !sync]

Are you actively synching the same folders with multiple applications that monitor?

[Two Devices On The Same Subnet, Maybe Connected, Maybe Not?]

1.3.94 isn't actually the latest, 1.3.103 is, but it's still probably a case of version mismatching.

[Establishing A "base" For Sync]

It does speed up initial synchronization but is not necessary.

[.syncignore Trouble – Am I Using It Wrong?]

try the following example for ignoring entire folders:

Dropbox/*Library/*

[How do I stop btsync in linux]

killall btsync will send the proper signal to btsync as long as you don't use additional paramaters.

Signal 15 (sigterm) is the proper signal to send and will trigger a graceful shutdown.

Signal 9 (sigkill) will do a non-graceful shutdown of the application.

[How do I stop btsync in linux]

As long as you send the proper signal it will stop gracefully.

[Dht Question In Sync. Private Files Or Worldwide Files?]

If you don't know the address:port combination or you have a prohibitively large number of computers to connect between, DHT would be the better option.

Also, dynamic public IP address and moving devices could also cause problems without DHT.

[Dht Question In Sync. Private Files Or Worldwide Files?]

If you want a config that automatically knows the IP, use DHT and/or trackers with relay use enabled.

[Direct Download Link For Linux]

I don't know what you've been doing different, but going to the download page for the current build (now at http://forum.bittorrent.com/topic/29944- as of this post) has links that can be put into your favorite remote shell (putty for example) for use with wget.

[Dht Question In Sync. Private Files Or Worldwide Files?]

Different ports is fine

Forward both TCP and UDP

Traffic is encrypted anyway.

[[Fixed] Failed To Create Empty Suffix For File]

What version does that pi repository have in it?

[Multi-Device Sync - Which Is Master?]

The "master" device is whichever of your devices has a full access secret. Any device with a full-access secret that gets a folder deleted on it will cause that folder to get deleted on other devices.

[Sync, Really, Where ?]

It means that you need to sync both devices to the same time server because the time difference exceeds that set in Sync.

The default is 10 minutes.

If they ARE synchronized to the same time server, and the times are correct, the timezone data on the two devices don't match.
