yds Posted April 2, 2016 Report Share Posted April 2, 2016 Hi. Just install btsync (v2.3.6) on my Win10 machine. Trying to sync to a folder on my Raspberry Pi (version 1.2.67 running there). I can get them to connect, and the Win10 machine shows that it has uploaded to the Rpi machine (the green up arrows for all files), but nothing shows up on my Rpi folder. I have set permissions correctly on the RPi (the folder has r/w access for everyone) so I'm not sure what the issue is. Is there a log file (on either the Win10 machine or Rpi) that I can look at to try to diagnose? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yds Posted April 2, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 2, 2016 I removed the old version of btsync on the RPi and installed the latest version (from the repositories) and it seems to be working now. Question: I am sharing my Win10 folder as read only with the RPi. If I delete a file on the RPi, I understand it won't delete it on the Win10 machine. But will it ever "reappear" on the RPi? I'm using btsync as a remote backup solution for all my family photos. If something on the Rpi gets corrupt or deleted, I don't want it to corrupt the version on my Win10 machine, which is why I use ReadOnly. But at the same time, if I accidentally delete something on the Rpi, I would like it to automatically get replaced by the "good" file on my Win10 machine. Is that possible??

Helen Posted April 3, 2016 Report Share Posted April 3, 2016 yds, Keep option "Overwrite any changed files" enabled on RO peer. So all files that change on it will be re-downloaded from RW peer. Details are here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
