Hi,

Prior to 8.6, in order to sync a local (in my case, windows) folder with a remote one (in my case, ubuntu), with private key encryption through SFTP, I was using a workaround : use another software to create a pseudo local Z: disk on Windows, mapping a remote disk through SFTP with private key. Then sync the local folder with a folder on Z:

In 8.6, it is now possible to access directly the remote disk using P/Keys, with no intermediate software. And it is much faster. However, there is a little drawback with RealTimeSync : RTS raises an error, saying that the remote destination cannot be monitored.

Any way/plans to fix it ?

Thanks and regards.

SFTP in general does not support real time monitoring as needed by RTS => Just remove the SFTP folder from RTS monitoring to get rid of the warning.
