One way backup with BTsync

  • Hi,


    Installed btsync on omv, added one folder that should have multiple backup folder of my phone.


    In Btsync, you could add a sync folder (no bulk folder addind, strange) or a one way folder (http://help.getsync.com/custom…-data-from-android-device)


    But how do I add those links created by btsync ? (I red that I should qo the the web ui, but it does not work on port 8888)


    Thanks

  • Thanks subzero79 worked with private windows :)


    is there any more complete guide on Sync ?


    i did add a folder in omv but seems not to be the right way if I just need to backup some folder on my phone.


    Deleted the share folder and added some on my phone then pasted the link on the gui , is it the right way ?


    If I'm at home, could the file only use my WAN ?


    (sorry for all the questions)

    Not here that I recall. You can check the guide section

    By default btsync does not have RW permission on folders. You can use the bsync interface to add folders. Just make sure you have workaround shares so btsync can write. Read more about here


    btsync shared folders permissions


    Deleted the share folder and added some on my phone then pasted the link on the gui , is it the right way ?


    Yes. That's the way I know. I also believe that the QR codes can be scanned also to add folders with a smartphone


    If I'm at home, could the file only use my WAN ?


    Didn't get this question.

  • Thanks again for your time.


    If I'm at home and look on the transfert rate, it appears that they're far at the limit of my isp, does it go through smartphone-wan-internet nebula-wan-omv or smartphone-wan-omv ?

  • Yes thanks,


    I though it would be specific on install on omv, but no, you're right


    resolved anyway, thanks again :)
