Qsync - Manage Paired Folders

Post by aatech »

I thought I was a pretty smart guy ... until I started trying to configure QSync outside the default installation.

Qsync is installed on the Qnap - with Qsync client running on Windows 10

I get that I can drag and drop files to the qsync folder on the client - but if I want to sync say 100 gig of data from various
folders I have to manually drag and drop every time - and then I'll end up with twice the amount of data on the client because its duplicated (yes I
know I can set it up so that I can then delete it - but that would be stupid)

I'm trying to get real time synchronisation from client to qnap using the existing client folders.

So I go into "view and manage paired folders" in the client software so I can map a local folder to a Qnap folder - which is fine,
except that it doesn't show anything in the "homes" folders which is where all my user's home folders are stored.

I open Qsync central on the Qnap and it shows the "homes" folder status as disabled. I've added read/write permissions but
no homes folders are showing up on the Qsync client so I can't add any folder pairs to these locations.

I'm about to give Qsync away. Any suggestions?

I'm not an expert but it seems like qsync will only sync with root folders and not subfolders. I had to create several folders on the NAS to sync with the respective folders on my computer.

So using file station I created shared folders and then qsync can see them. Does that answer your question?
