aslamK Posted August 29, 2013 Report Share Posted August 29, 2013 OS: Ubuntu 13.04I noticed that the BTSync process survives across sessions, even though it runs as the login user (not root). If this is expected/intended behaviour, can you explain why? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LazyWolf Posted August 30, 2013 Report Share Posted August 30, 2013 It is to be expected, that process is forked to the background which means it is not tied to your session.You should be able to run it with the extra --nodaemon option in a ~/.config/autostart/something.desktop file I think that would spawn it tied to the current session.
