doublet Posted December 16, 2013 Report Share Posted December 16, 2013 Hi there, I have a synch folder that I have given out the readonly secret to a number of people, and I need to move the folders to a different location, how can I do this whilst still keeping the same readonly secret? Is it as simple as just closing down BTSynch, moving the folders to the new location, and moving the .SynchArchive folder to the new location then restarting BTSynch again? thanksTeresa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vadimt Posted December 16, 2013 Report Share Posted December 16, 2013 Hi! Your steps should be the following:1. Copy your full access secret.2. Remove your shared folder from BTSync UI.3. Move your folder to another location.4. Add your shared folder to BTSync again with the same full access secret.Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doublet Posted December 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2013 awesome, that worked just fine. Thanks for that - I was trying to overthink it, as I do! cheers Teresa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brubaker Posted December 17, 2013 Report Share Posted December 17, 2013 It even still worked if I changed the full access key for some users to revoke access to other but hey, they nevertheless they "all" got the files. Please see my thread: http://forum.bittorrent.com/topic/25403-revoked-changed-full-access-secret-but-still-sharing-files/?hl=access Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
