Dropbox Sync

Unread post by AG7AB »

Is it possible to run RumlogNG on two Mac's using a common log file on Dropbox? The iCloud sync page discusses sync with iOS devices, but my interest is just to be able to access my log from a second Mac. Are there any limitations to watch out for when doing this?

Thanks,
Mike, AG7AB

A lot of users have the log files in the Dropbox or in the iCloud. You have to consider two things:
  • Do not access a logbook file with more than one computer at the same time.
  • Each database change may start a sync cycle. This may cause high network traffic.
