We tried having Drop Box Folder on RD but we can't Sync The RD Folder
on The desktop with The dropbox. When You add the Dropbox Address in the
the rd catch. The Name ans password fields disappear. Do you have a work
around this problem.

Hi Jesse
On the CentOS 6 Rivendell system set a password for rd in Users &
Groups in the CentOS Menu System>Administration>Users 7 Groups.
There is a default but better to use your own. Just overwrite the
***** and click OK.
In Filezilla use SFTP [ftp over ssh] which defaults to port 22. OK
on the same network [ use port fowarding to connect from the WAN]
ssh runs on Rivendell Appliance out of the box.
"Normal" login allows you to configure user name and password
In the 'Advanced' tab set your local and Rivendell directory. We
have a directory on rd called dropbox so the path is
'/home/rd/dropbox'
There are some ready made directories on RD you can use as well.
You can also map that dropbox or any of the rd directories as a
mounted folder on your windows machine so you just save the audio
files into the folder on your desktop [or wherever] The Rivendell
appliance shares a bunch of directories with Samba by default. Use
RDCATCH or the 'dropbox' feature to monitor for files you place in
the mounted shared folder which saves having to Filezilla every time
you record the weather. The installed folders are already set up.
It's easy enough to add to the Samba shares. man Samba will provide
all you need to know.
Be aware that Samba shares have some file naming restrictions that
should not bother you, and you may have to tweak permissions.
I have such shared folder systems in a number of installations and
they work fine.
Filezilla is my #1 choice for remote access.

You could also use a ftp server, some servers allow you to map a user
to a directory other than the servers root directory.
This user could be mapped to the dropbox directory.
He did say using the local IPv4 address, so its on the internal
network.

Gary.
