syncthing on GhostBSD
Posted: Thu Sep 26, 2019 5:00 am
I just installed GhostBSD 19.09 on an 11 year old notebook - and I am impressed how nicely this old hardware can be used with this OS!
So I wanted to synchronize some documents with other computers and installed syncthing
I edited /etc/rc.conf and added the line
Now I have two issues:
(1) I can start syncthing manually by calling
But it won't start automatically when the system is started.
I was under the impression that this should be the case with the line I added to /etc/rc.conf
What have I missed?
(2) I made a new directory for syncthing data:
My intention was that all synced content should be writeable by all users in the operator group.
But all files generated by syncthing only have read access for the group.
I have activated "ignore permissions" in the syncthing GUI.
Does anybody know, how I can tell syncthing to give write permissions to the group as well?
Thank you very much in advance for your help!
