By default, all shares will be stored in the directory as defined in 'foldersstoragepath' value in agent config file nf. Click on 'Install an app manually' and select the downloaded bin file.

(No responsibility for accuracy accepted, I'm a noob to Linux. On NAS go to Apps and stop Resilio Agent. I attach the commands I used to get this working on my Pi. Beware, the translation screws some of the commands up so you need to swap back and forth between the original German and the English translation. Hd-idle is described at which is in German, but Google Chrome will translate this for you. I have not really measured the relative speeds but transfer rates are at around 40kB per second (ADSL upload speed peaks atabout 344k where I live).

#Resilio sync on shared host movie#

If a movie of, say, 2GB takes a week to sync then so what? I have one end where the target directory is a share on my Windows network and it's Ethernet connected while the other end is wifi connected and has the HDD on one of the USB ports. My purpose was to 'slowly' sync the libraries. The Raspberry Pi is not the fastest thing around. Currently we rely on carrying harddisks around sneakernet style. Unfortunately we still don't quite have fast enough internet here to make movie sharing practical, but if we ever do I'll be doing that for sure. They just upped their internet plan to a quota which is 10x their actual use. Once I get a satisfactory RasPi rig running I'll be seeding it at home and then taking it over to my parents' house.

#Resilio sync on shared host code#

Is that a line of code you put in a config file somewhere?Īlso, are you running your Pi with a wifi dongle or the ethernet cable? I'm using a wifi dongle (because I don't have ethernet in the other room) and the transfer rates are terrible (2 megabytes/sec).

#Resilio sync on shared host portable#

I actually stopped using the HDD with my Raspberry Pi because it was sitting there spinning away 24/7 and I thought that might be bad for it (especially since it's a self-powered 2.5' portable drive). This thread has moved away from commercial servers and more toward home-brew DIY rigs.

Happy to share some more details if anyone is interested. When either of us rips a new DVD it syncs with the 'other' end and is added to both libraries.

I also installed samba server at the remote end and my host is able to view the movies on the HDD from his Smart TV using its DLNA client. (I know, it's debatable whether this harms the HDD in the long run.). To keep the remote host happy I added 'hd-idle' to spin down the HDD after 5 minutes and minimise power consumption. Once installed at the remote end and after an initial rescan, which took a couple of days, it's all now running perfectly and syncing only changes to the files. I live in the UK where residential ADSL speeds can be hopeless so I 'seeded' the remote on my own LAN before installing it at the remote location. I set this up between 2 Raspberry Pi devices running Rasbpian and I now have around 200GB of movies synced between 2 locations. Just make sure they have the monthly bandwidth quota for whatever you're doing. or strap a Rapsberry Pi to an external harddisk and a powered USB hub and leave it at your parents' house when you're next visiting.
