linux - BitTorrent Sync resets Device Name on restart -

ubuntu 14.04 lts bittorrent sync version 1.3.106 server version

each time reset computer device name reset bittorrent sync default generated name (i believe default "[computer name] - default instance"). utilize web interface set device name.

i have looked @ changing config file manually, warns overwritten every restart.

how can set device name in way name saved, and/or how 1 prepare web interface device name saved?

instead of using web interface seek name instance, utilize conf files.

make re-create of default conf file, , set options in there

cp /etc/btsync/debconf-default.conf /etc/btsync/[prefered conf name].conf

after setting options in /etc/btsync/[prefered conf name].conf create sure user , or grouping btsync runs has @ to the lowest degree read access. there many ways this; made grouping of conf file btsync daemon grouping , turned on grouping read write access

chgrp btsync /etc/btsync/[prefered conf name].conf chmod 060 /etc/btsync/[prefered conf name].conf

i wanted 1 instance of btsync running, new /etc/btsync/[prefered conf name].conf based one. must edit /etc/default/btsync , add together line defining 1 conf run. default conf in /etc/btsync (this may or may not include defaults). add together line file.

autostart="[prefered conf name]"

restart btsync service changes take effect.

service btsync restart

your instance of bittorrent sync may not running btsync. btsync default, whatever set @ install. if not remember is in /etc/btsync/debconf-default.conf

daemon_uid=

is user and

daemon_gid=

is group
