Using 7.0.1

 

I need to have a bi-directional sync between my travel laptop and a share on my Unraid box that triggers when I come home and connect the client laptop to the local network. Unison seems perfect for this, but I can't seem to find a version for Unraid.

 

Does that exist, or should I chase other solutions?

 

Thanks

 

if Unison is a linux application. unraid runs on slackware linux.

From what i can find Unison is a MIDI application ? ...

you may need to look at a lxc / vm or docker version of Unison, but this seems to be more a home automation something that can be achieved via leveraging udev rules and running scripts when devices are available...

OR You could run unison via docker.

as a unraid CA template doesn't exist for this, so you would need to make a custom template and pass unraid data folder into the docker container to act as the unison docker folder path when making file shares...

however other dockers and system exist such as syncthing.. that can meet your needs...

Synching would run on the 3 devices and share across

 

Thanks! I'll give syncthing a try -- it seems like it should fit my goals. 

 

Much appreciated.
