Harold Feit Posted September 8, 2013 Report Share Posted September 8, 2013 In order for local peer discover to work, multicast must not be blocked between computers that are going to sync. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harold Feit Posted September 8, 2013 Report Share Posted September 8, 2013 To sync like that, you'd need a hub or router to get both machines connected at once. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
