    I did make a copy. I was trying to make the point that I can't access them in my user folders using W:\ and let other people access them in the group through W:\ without copying.

    Hi Deathbob,

    I just made a test with MySQL Administrator 1.2.12 und a very small dataset. I had no problems, backup was successfully written to my Wuala account.

    How large ist your backup? If it is huge, does it work with less data? What is your OS?

    @Patrick: you made most likely a copy and not a link.

    @Patrick2000: With the current solution you don't have to think about access rights. So its much simpler for most users. Your idea is much more complicated as you have to adjust the access rights for each new group member.

    Note in case you are looking for how to edit the hosts file: this isn't necessary any more and I have removed the post describing how to do it in order to avoid confusion.

    Here is what worked for me (Win2k SP4):

    1) Add NetBEUI protocol

    2) ipconfig /release

    3) ipconfig /renew

    You may need to do the ipconfig /release and /renew after Wuala has started if the drive doesn't map. Or restart Wuala afterwards.

    FSI - Mysql Administrator
    I'm trying to use Wuala with my SQL Backups. Unfortunately MYSQL Administrator is not playing nice with FSI. The two errors i've gotten when trying to backup to W: are:
    File not writable
    File Doesn't Exist

    Well I guess it's like that, otherwise you would have to re-encrypt etc. the file every time you do a maintenance upload and I personally haven't seen that happening.

    I've reported this in this topic some days ago:
    http://getsatisfaction.com/wuala/topi...

    @Bugreport: Are you sure about that? So I just have to spread the files for a while before they go to the 'clearable' cache?

    Oh - ok! Thanks, Roger, for your reply. I used "copy link". I just checked and the behaviour is exactly as you described: I tried to make a link in Group Folder to one of my shared folders. This behaves the same way like links to private folders. Well, for me it's ok like that, I'd only suggest that wuala should give me an error/info message when pasting the link, and tell me what it's doing (copying files) - i thought it was a hard link.

    I wanted to link to one of my shared folders, that i'm shareing whith almost everybody of that group. So I'd actually be even hapier if it did, what i wanted and create a regular soft link (which would then eventually be inaccessible to some unauthorised guests, but this sould be the concern of the owner/creator of the link to set up appropriate access rights in that case).

    Wuala seems to be very stable once a file is completely uploaded.
    My problem is I am having lots of trouble getting the files in wuala without them becoming zombies. 1.2GB in uploads folder from a month ago.

    A comment on the question "Keep Local Backup option?" in Wuala:

    paf0
    I'd rather not wait for a file to stream where possible. The cache also contains files that I browse, right? My files can get bumped out of the cache if access a lot of other files? I also thought the local backup option would be useful for syncing files. If a file is inserted on one machine, it would definitely be available for quick access on another. Just my 2cents.. – paf0, 3 days ago

    If the files are spread out enough they will be moved automatically to your cache and can be purged there afterwards.

    Edit: 3,3 GB is amazing? Well you better not look at my folders then! ;-)

    Specifically Caleido\Wuala\Data and in there most importantly \Caleido\Wuala\Data\Local2

    Data is 3.333GB and Local2 occupies some 3.225GB of that and Meta occupies some 108MB (which is not that much of a problem...)

    And Wuala doesn't Upload so i have to assume that all the files have finished uploading (and the program also says that)

    I cleared my Cache before checking those numbers.

    System Specs:
    WinXp SP3
    2GB DDR
    amdx2 3800+
    500gb wd sata
    nv7900gt

    Darkstriker
    My Data Folder Occupies some amazing 3.3GB (on my prime pc on which i dont share at all)... That is roughly equal to what I uploaded from that PC. That is why I thought that there still was a local backup...

    Should I just delete the files or is there another solution?

    Thanks, good to know. However, I'm still not sure what could have caused this.

    Luzius replied 4 days ago to the question "Keep Local Backup option?" in Wuala:

    Luzius
    Wuala doesn't keep a local backup any more. When a file is inserted into Wuala, Wuala copies it into its upload cache and keeps it there until it is uploaded. When the upload is finished, it is moved to the regular cache whose size you can adjust in the settings.

    @Darkstriker: if you think Wuala occupies much more space than it should, please let me know which folders occupy much storage, maybe we can do something about it.

    Luzius
    Yes, well observed. We should update the sorting of the stored list on renames -> added to our todo list.
