Installing Syncthing
Really, Syncthing is more of a peer-to-peer thing. So the server & client are the same thing. Which it is depends on how you're using it.
Linux (LMDE6)
Add the release PGP keys:
sudo mkdir -p /etc/apt/keyringssudo curl -L -o /etc/apt/keyrings/syncthing-archive-keyring.gpg https://syncthing.net/release-key.gpg
Add the "stable" channel to your APT sources:
echo "deb [signed-by=/etc/apt/keyrings/syncthing-archive-keyring.gpg] https://apt.syncthing.net/ syncthing stable" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/syncthing.list
Update and install syncthing:
sudo apt-get updatesudo apt-get install syncthingvi ~/.local/state/syncthing/config.xml- Change <address> to 0.0.0.0:8384 (line 55)
Set up as a SYSTEM service
This means Syncthing will always run when the machine is running.
Based on configuring it for a regular user.
(Replace “myuser” with the actual Syncthing user after the @:)
systemctl enable syncthing@myuser.servicesystemctl start syncthing@myuser.service
Set up as a USER service
This means Syncthing will start when the user logs into the machine.
systemctl --user enable syncthing.servicesystemctl --user start syncthing.service
Android
