    Right, I've decided I'll do max 20 - anyone invited has to share the love and invite others, OK? Invites are unlimited but have to be done from the app.

    EDIT My bad, I have installed 2 different accounts...

  • Working for me.

  • Invite me plz.

  • PM sent :)

  • @Noerman PM mate!

  • I've been used it for a while but was long time ago. It works but quite buggy and consumes a lot of resources. Not sure if there is significant improvement or not.

    Looks a bit useless :S

    I'm trying to figure out what the differences are between this and an rsync on a cronjob... but I can't quite seem to figure it out. Can anyone enlighten me?

  • @joepie91: You can't exactly run rsync and a cron job from an Android phone, nor can you do it as soon as a file is uploaded (well you can't but it'll take more than a cronjob and rsync).

    Not to mention that it'd be kind of a pain in the ass to manage multiple hosts at once across operating systems - does the person uploading the file upload it to everyone? What happens if it's saved from one sync to another?

    There's a bit more involved.

  • PM sent.Thanks

    invite me please :)

  • correct me if i am wrong, the only difference between this one and gdrive/dropbox/box etc is that this one encrypts the file transfer and offers unlimited space. So where is the catch?

    Your files are stored directly on the PC/server you want it to stored at rather than at some third party servers (unless you choose to share the file), that way it is more secure than DB/GDrive.

    Sorry I haven't read enough... so, this is a self hosted solution? Kinda crashplan?

  • Invite please :)

    Is that really so hard to understand? Everyone that PM'd an email has been invited.

  • @yomero said: so, this is a self hosted solution? Kinda crashplan?

    Yes, Crashplan without Crashplan central :) Except you can access the individual files at any time as they are in a folder on each one of the computer synced.

    So it is more like the personal "cloud" dropbox haha :)

    Can't people read?

    Works great. Hopefully they allow for syncing arbitrary folders soon though -- I have data spread out across multiple drives that I want to sync, and I don't want to have to move it all under the AeroFS folder to do it.

  • @Ree said: allow for syncing arbitrary folders soon though

    Only whatever you dump into the AeroFS folder I think, but you can use symbolic link to link up other folder to this AeroFS folder.

  • Can anyone send my also a invite for AeroFS, it will be very very nice.
    Thank you

  • Invite me plz.

  • Looks interesting!

    Do I understand it correct if the only way to run your own server is to use the business plan?
    What clients can it be used on?
    Ios, android, win and linux?

    There is no "server"....it is just from one folder to another...more or less like private P2P?
