I recently discovered Freefilesync while searching for a tool that would
monitor realtime some folders and synchronize them with my NAS.

Since I have user permissions on my NAS, I am required to do an "initial"
login everytime I access the NAS folder from Windows. Given this fact, is
there any way to pass on to the batch file or the command line executed during
RealTimeSync the user credentials in order to have a truly "silent"
synchronization? Or do I have to do an initial login to the NAS folder each
time I boot my computer?

Also, how can I "start" RealTimeSync each time I boot my computer? Setting it
to be executed at windows startup would just run the .exe. What about actually
starting the monitoring?

Thank you very much in advance.

I managed to figure everything out and now I have successfully set up
RealTimeSync as a windows service on windows 7. The problem right now is that
the service seems to be running but the RealTimeSync does not sync anything.
Only if I restart the service it does perform a comparison and syncs any
differences. After it finishes this initial sync, it ignores any other changes
in the monitored folders, despite the fact that the service is still running.

Any ideas or suggestions would be much appreciated.

I think I have the same problem (viewtopic.php?t=7388). I know it's a loong time, but do you remember how you solved this?
