GrahamN Posted January 21, 2018 Report Share Posted January 21, 2018 I've a few questions as a new user that I haven't found answers to. 1: How can I tell if a particular Windows PC is using a relay server to sync? I have Resilio Sync installed as a service if that makes any difference. 2: How can I tell if a sync operation is actually in progress? (More generally: how to monitor Sync's activity?) 3: The IgnoreList file appears to apply to just the device on which it is located (i.e. it isn't shared between devices). Am I correct? 4: Does the IgnoreList file on a device (PC, NAS, whatever) prevent Sync on that device from sending, or receiving, or both, any listed items? Any help appreciated (including pointing me to where I should have found this information myself!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helen Posted January 22, 2018 Report Share Posted January 22, 2018 1. Open peers list, you'll see "relay" icon there. See the guide. 2. See 'status' column and peers list. Also, if you see up/down speed indicators at UI bottom, smth is being synced. 3. Correct. 4. Both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrahamN Posted January 22, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2018 Helen, Thank you. I would have though the more logical place to show that a relay server is in use would be in the list of devices. I realise that use of a relay server can be specified for each individual folder, but for any given server at any moment in time, I don't see how it could have some folders connected using a relay server and some connected *not* using a relay server. (If one folder connection can get through without a relay server, they all can.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helen Posted January 23, 2018 Report Share Posted January 23, 2018 within one share you may have peers connected directly, and some - through relay. 22 hours ago, GrahamN said: I don't see how it could have some folders connected using a relay server and some connected *not* using a relay server. doesn't option "use relay" in share prefs work??
