i installed BTSync in a folder called "syncme"  in my home directory,

My user name is "bob" so my start-up script looks like this:
 

sudo vi /etc/init.d/btsync

or

sudo nano /etc/init.d/btsync

#! /bin/sh# /etc/init.d/btsync## Carry out specific functions when asked to by the systemcase "$1" instart)    /home/bob/syncme/btsync --config /home/bob/syncme/btsync.config    ;;stop)    killall btsync    ;;*)    echo "Usage: /etc/init.d/btsync {start|stop}"    exit 1    ;;esacexit 0

Save the file and exit

 

Start BT Sync Service:

sudo chmod 755 /etc/init.d/btsyncsudo update-rc.d btsync defaultssudo service btsync start

sudo nano /home/blackboy/syncme/btsync.config
