GoodSync Ver 9 New Features
GoodSync version 9 has many important new features.
Peer-To-Peer sync using our own GSTP protocol
* Sync two computers directly, via local network or Internet.
* No intermediate FTP/DAV/S3/SMB server is required, sync is direct, P2P way.
* Transfer only portion of file that has changed, not the entire file.
* No Access Denied errors, as GS uses its elevated service.
* Works seamlessly between Windows Mac, and Linux.
* Discovery and Browse works much faster than SMB (Windows Shares) and AFP (Apple File Protocol).
* Communication can be encrypted using SSL.
* Can read locked files remotely using VSS service on the remote computer.
* Sync ACL security attributes with remote servers, if on the same domain.
* GS Server runs as a service, so it runs even when all Windows users are logged off.
* Compute MD5 checksum of a file on server - fast backup verification.
* GS server can export any file system available on the server (Win Shares, WinMo Phone).
