Using FolderShare for "active" directories...

I'd like to have FolderShare operating in the background on my work
directories at the office and at home to keep both machines synced. The
problem is that I am continually creating temporary files and deleting them
automatically. I can see that Foldershare would be going crazy keeping
everything in order minute by minute.

How do you handle directories where the files are changing rapidly -i in
real time? On demand? Perhaps turn off FolderShare while working, and turn
it on again later?

My home computer is usually shut down during the day, so that's not such a
problem, but the office machine is on all the time.

Re: Using FolderShare for "active" directories...

Unfortunately FolderShare really wasn't designed for this scenario. About
the only thing I can suggest, and it's a kludge, would be to exit
FolderShare when you start working, then start it back up again when you
leave - perhaps using Windows Scheduler to fire it up at a certain time
every day.
