Re: HELP!!!

FreeFileSync did show a warning, which you apparently missed: The following folders are significantly different. Please check that the correct folders are selected for synchronization.

Re: Tip - alternative for gnome-schedule on Linux

Hi guys, Just wanted to chime in. I landed here after realizing that gnome-schedule is not an (easy) option on Ubuntu now, so I wanted to try and use crontab instead. I admit this is the first time I try to set up a cron job. Anyhow, I first fiddled with crontab to make sure I understood how it wor...

fstab is the table of filesystems. Browse fstab and see if you have an error at line 15.

Well I'm a dummy. The Kex stuff looked good on my server end. But while digging through docs on all the websites, noticed it was older than current. I was sitting back on 7.x something.
