Syncovery Support Forum

Hi,

In Syncovery, we have Profile Settings->Masks & Filters->Inclusion Masks & Exclusion Masks. It controls which files are backed up or not.

I am a former user of SyncBack Pro, and one option I really miss is the ability to configure Inclusion & Exclusion masks for which files will be versioned ...

Looks like it works!! Great job!

Excellent - yeah, that was my thought. That way, there's pretty much no limitations or requirements: no special server features, no remote admin access required, no port limitations, etc. Just works the same for everyone

Thanks for the quick build.

Unfortunately, I gave it a try & the results are the same (except that I can now see in the first line of the log that the $ are escaped):

Using a Synology NAS.

As a proof of concept I tried a remote copy w/ WinSCP, & it seemed to work, so maybe thats the easiest thing to test/replicate?

Hi; any update on this? Been eagerly checking the updates for almost 2 years (since Nov 2020)

Thanks

Sorry, I'm embarassed!! The issue was Syncthing, and I knew that app was the problem, but somehow my brain mixed up the names "syncthing" and "syncovery", so I posted int he wrong place. Sorry for the bother!
