I'm running mint 17.3 on 2 x pc.
I'm able to get the syncs all set up and run it manually.
However on a reboot FFS seems to forget where the remote folders are.

Ive done the same under win7 and it all works well, but i would rather do away with win 7.

any suggestions please?

LastSyncs.ffs_gui is saved during app exit, so maybe you have restarted while the app was still running?

Thanks for the reply.
No thats not the case. Definitely finished.
It only seems to find the network shares after i browse to them over the network.
Once thats done then it finds them (shares)again.
Until reboot, then once again cant access the network folders

FFS (on Linux) doesn't manage the network shares itself but works with what is currently available. Maybe you need to permanently mount the shares (fstab?) or mount them before starting FFS.
