    So you're trying to keep a single external synced to multiple desktops?
  2. Harold Feit
    How doesn't it work with the drive letters different?
  3. Harold Feit
    Are there files locked in the folder on the machines that aren't uploading? What versions of sync are on the machines?
  4. Harold Feit
    Yes actually.

    Are you on mac? If you're not, then the delay is caused PURELY by the hashing and transfer of the files. Mac's file-change notification system isn't as straightforward to implement as other platforms.
  6. Harold Feit
    Already implemented. (encrypted secret) Currently requires API access due to the added strain such shares put on nodes.
  7. Harold Feit
    What specific version of sync? What does the interface say for the status? (Are they still indexing) If they're still indexing, you might adjust the folder_rescan_interval advanced setting to be longer.

    The fixed port is needed typically in case of the preference port getting blocked either by overzealous ISPs or poorly designed hardware. It's needed in case of those blocks on EITHER end of the communication.

    UDP traffic is used to communicate between systems. 3838 is used as an alternate port for communication. Is the x.x.x.x an address in one of the ranges listed in RFC1918? The short version is, you probably can't close the ports without breaking things.
  10. Harold Feit
    What internet security software is on the machines? Has that software been configured to allow BTSync?
  11. Harold Feit
    Probably not.
  12. Harold Feit
    The short version of what's going on is that each machine in that situation has its own working copy of the file that it saves its edits from. ALL the edits from whoever saves last get applied to the document and all others either get completely ignored or stored in the .syncarchive folder.
  13. Harold Feit
    The one that saves last gets their version as the main version.

    Because you need to generate additional encryption information on a per-file basis for the encrypted keys rather than the read only ones. Read-only and read-write keys have access to the files unencrypted. The Encrypted read-only keys do NOT have unencrypted access to the files, so separate encryption information needs to be generated for them.
  15. Harold Feit
    The generation and indexing of shares that support encrypted is actually significantly higher than that of normal shares.

    Actually, the 5-page thread did include discussions on the possibilities if sync was made to be open source.

    What IP addresses do your devices have?
  19. Harold Feit
  20. Harold Feit
    Probably the printer's UPnP implementation.
  21. Harold Feit
    That's probably a DPI setting issue. Try turning your windows DPI down.

    The closest I've personally tried with (and had decent success with) was the WD My Book Live. All the specification documentation I can find says that the My Cloud runs on a dual-core version of the same processor line and is running linux (PowerPC based) The installation method would be the same.
  23. Harold Feit
    Did you remove and re-add the rules for sync in your firewall yet? I've got it working fine on two different windows 8.1 machines.
  24. Harold Feit
    There is no desktop version for linux at this time
