Then, you would choose the initial folder you want to synchronize. On the source machine, you would select “Standard Setup” as the installation type: All you have to do is run the installer on both the source machine and the target machine. The installation process is pretty straightforward. Based on the bittorent protocol, BitTorrent Sync lets you do uni-directional or bi-directional file synchronization via AES 256 encryption over BitTorrent, by BitTorrent Labs. I wanted something that was almost as simple to use as Dropbox, but without the interim data storage where your files end up stored “in the cloud”. In other words, it’s a bit of a pain to setup each time. You have to open up several ports and it’s usually a hit-or-miss type of thing depending on whether you can use FTP directly or whether you need to use Passive FTP (PASV). The only issue I have with RSYNC/WinSCP is that you need to setup the FTP server ahead of time. Another thing I use this for is to get daily copies of log files with important clients. One of my main uses for file synchronization is to acquire registry snapshots of client machines and copy them to our central server for safekeeping. On Windows machines I would use WinSCP, a simple scripting engine to transfer files via SFTP, which provides facilities very similar to RSYNC. The traditional way was to use an RSYNC-like mechanism, common in the *nix world. If you wish to contact me, You may do it via my profile.One of the challenges I’ve encountered over the years has been how to get heterogeneous servers to share information via file sharing over WAN. Remember, if you'd like to get you'r own copy of BittorrentSync, you can Download it from I just wanted to post this so you all would know about it, for those that may have been wanting to use the App, either on the Mac, or iOS, etc. I'd use Sync over any other product, e.g Dropbox as soon as they finish getting it all to work right. The iOS version of Sync works fine, just has focus issues I believe, but works good. I've been getting great feedback from Shahar and others too, for those that have not used BittorrentSync, or have but stopped do to accessibility problems. I've encuraged the guy I'm talking to right now, Shahar to create a user account, or get a dev to possibly join Applevis as a developer, so we can keep in touch with them.
I am at the time of writing, as I'm posting this, am speaking to a Bittorrent Sync UX person from Bittorrent and am happy to say that it seem that for this whole day, all the way from this morning, I've been dealing with accessibility with Bittorrent Sync.
