Ignatiev Posted February 17, 2013 Report Posted February 17, 2013 Please, add support for FreeBSD.I have about 250TB in mirror. I sync these storages via Unison, but Unison have some bugs and speed of sync near 250-280Mbyte/s. I think SyncApp can do this with more speed Quote
iMok Posted February 18, 2013 Report Posted February 18, 2013 Already asked for this, FreeNas + SyncApp = perfect nas combo Quote
Vladimir Posted February 23, 2013 Report Posted February 23, 2013 I want to use SyncApp on my FreeBSD servers too. Quote
yarnofmoo Posted April 20, 2013 Report Posted April 20, 2013 A "me too" here.I did try it under FreeBSD's linux compatibility mode, but unfortunately epoll isn't implimented yet:$ ./btsync --nodaemonepoll creation failed - terminating: Function not implementedFreeBSD uses kqueue, as does MacOSX. If btsync uses kqueue on MacOSX some kind of hybrid between the linux version and the FreeBSD version might work.As a last resort there is a pre-beta patch to the FreeBSD linux compatibility layer enabling epoll, but I'm not brave enough to try it.

yottabit Posted April 24, 2013 Report Posted April 24, 2013 I'm adding FreeBSD to the wishlist sticky. I also tried to get it to load on FreeNAS (FreeBSD 8.3) without luck, because the linux kernel module isn't available.Since this is a NAS distro, the source isn't there to compile from, either. I could probably get it in there manually but that's a lot of bother, especially with the restricted space on the OS disk (2 GB). Quote
Daywalker Posted April 24, 2013 Report Posted April 24, 2013 I'd also be very happy to see a native FreeBSD application.Things that could bee a problem on FreeBSD could bee the missing fsevents.BUT (according to wikipedia) 9.2 should ship with a similar feature. Quote

kos13 Posted April 26, 2013 Report Posted April 26, 2013 You've asked - we made it. We have a FreeBSD and PC-BSD in testing and it will be released next week.The only thing is that FreBSD build will not have file monitoring ability (Linux inotify) , folder will be re-scanned every 10 minutes. Quote
yottabit Posted April 26, 2013 Report Posted April 26, 2013 You guys completely rock! I've rarely had the opportunity to use a product where the developers are so engaged with the active user community and so quickly respond to major requests such as building the product for a different OS (especially when it comes to UNIX!).I'm greatly looking forward to using the new build. Quote
yarnofmoo Posted April 26, 2013 Report Posted April 26, 2013 Many thanks! We'll see how it performs. Quote
isaac Posted April 29, 2013 Report Posted April 29, 2013 Will that ten minutes be configurable? I wouldn't want my freenas raid array woken up every ten minutes. Ideally there would be an option to only scan if the disks were spinning. Alternatively if you could make it so we trigger scans with our own scripts instead of on a timer.Btw thanks for adding freebsd support Quote
kos13 Posted April 29, 2013 Report Posted April 29, 2013 No. Right now it won't be configurable. Quote
pekseg Posted May 1, 2013 Report Posted May 1, 2013 Dear kos13,when can we expect the first vesion? Quote
kos13 Posted May 3, 2013 Report Posted May 3, 2013 http://syncapp.bittorrent.com/1.0.128/Please note that this is first release for FreeBSD, so there might be some platform specific things. Please also upgrade other machines to the new version. It doesn't have real-time monitoring of changes (Linux inotify), so folder will be rescanned every 10 minutes. This is not configurable yet.Please let me know how it will work for you. And If you will have something special to say to a person who made this, PM me and I will pass this personally to him.kos Quote
j4pe Posted May 5, 2013 Report Posted May 5, 2013 Thank you for thinking of BSD! And NetBSD ? I tried emulators/freebsd_lib but it's only i386 Quote
yottabit Posted May 7, 2013 Report Posted May 7, 2013 Seems to be working fine so-far for a day ... running 3-way between FreeBSD 8 and 2x Win7 x64. Quote
ckesselmeier Posted May 8, 2013 Report Posted May 8, 2013 1.0.128 is working flawlessly for me in a jail on FreeBSD 9.0 / Atom-D510 for two days now.NAT on a fixed port, synchronizing a 1GB and a 36 GB share on ZFS with two Macs running 10.8.3. Quote
fada Posted May 10, 2013 Report Posted May 10, 2013 1.0.128 is working fine in a jail on a derivated FreeBSD 8.3 (Freenas 8.3.1.p2) with a dedicated user.Thanks a lot for your job. Quote
z0mbix Posted June 7, 2013 Report Posted June 7, 2013 Please, please, please can we have an OpenBSD version? Please? Quote
atd Posted July 22, 2013 Report Posted July 22, 2013 I'd love to see a client for DragonflyBSD. This was a fork of FreeBSD, so hopefully it's still close enough to make a port relatively easy. Quote
robosleep Posted December 16, 2013 Report Posted December 16, 2013 Registered just to +1 for OpenBSD. Thank you devs for the FreeBSD port. Quote
