Raspberry Pi / Windows Sync - One-Way Connection

[dontaskaboutjack]

Hi all,

 

I've hooked btsync onto a raspberry pi via this tutorial: http://blog.bittorrent.com/2013/05/23/how-i-created-my-own-personal-cloud-using-bittorrent-sync-owncloud-and-raspberry-pi/

• I can successfully ping my windows laptop from the raspberry pi and visa-versa.
• The raspberry pi web gui shows that I am connected to the windows laptop and that files should be transferring.
• However, my windows laptop does not show that I am connected to the raspberry pi, and no files are being transferred.

Any ideas? The initial search suggests that its a firewall issue, but being able to ping both ways suggests not.

 

Thanks in advance,

What specific version of sync?

Hey Harold -

 

Both say that they are up to date. Windows has 1.1.82, Linux has 1.2.67, but it specifically says "up to date". Is that not the case?

 

Thanks,

Ben

Neither are actually up to date. Current is 1.2.82

Fantastic - thanks for the help on that. I'll post the same on Markus' thread. Hopefully the linux version will have an easier way of getting updated in the future.
