umputun Posted April 28, 2013 Report Share Posted April 28, 2013 Today I have found somebody else's file in my read-only shared directory. I'm testing BTSync for multimedia distribution and have a few hundreds (probably) users with read-only secret. All of them got this file and asking me WTF kind of questions Getting such file is extremely scary thing. First - it can potentially lead to malware delivered to all of my users, and second - if I got file from somebody by accident/mistake/collision it means - somebody else can get one of mine private files the same way!

Automatic Coding Posted April 28, 2013 Report Share Posted April 28, 2013 Considering they're all asking "WTF" kind of questions, may I ask, can I have said pornographic video?Other than that, I've yet to try out the read-only mode but I've noticed quite a few threads about how it doesn't seem to quite work, if you're using it, I recommend enabling debugging log so if anything ever goes wrong you can report it.

kos13 Posted April 28, 2013 Report Share Posted April 28, 2013 We already received report, so the question was more to community, I believe.Problem is that if you enter Read Only secret for directory that contains data, this data will be added and will be distributed across peers. We know this bug and it will be fixed.One more comment. Sync is still in Alpha and we do work hard to fix the issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Automatic Coding Posted April 28, 2013 Report Share Posted April 28, 2013 We already received report, so the question was more to community, I believe.I was more aiming it at everyone (OP & everyone else using read-only).Although, if it's a known issue and you've (hopefully? maybe? Unknown.) located where the issue is in the code, then, I doubt the logs are necessary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kos13 Posted April 28, 2013 Report Share Posted April 28, 2013 Logs are always useful, this way we at least could verify that this is the same issue.So it is always better to have logs or any other clue that might help us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
