Hello Thanks a lot for your program, it's just what I was looking for. Seems to work fine so far. Now I'd like to know how to use it in a multi-account setting, while keeping credentials and data. Thanks in advance for your help.

Good question @xiconet I'll check it out and then i tell you. I'm glad you found it useful ;)

Hi @xiconet How many users are we talking about? 2? maybe 3?

xiconet commented 10 years ago

Hi Andres. Let's say 3 users.

andresoviedo commented 10 years ago

Hi @xiconet Right now the application only support 1 user. However, you have 2 options: 1 - Start 2 instances of google-drive-ftp-server, each listening on dedicated port 2 - Full refactoring of application to support multiple gdrive accounts 1st option, i could test it and fix it if necessary. 2nd option it's maybe 8-16h work. Are you developer?

xiconet commented 10 years ago

Hi Andres, thanks for the answer. I wouldn't qualify myself as a developer (yet), although I do try hard. My programming knowledge is still basically limited to Python (because it seems easier to me), but I'm willing to learn other languages as well, including Java. Studying your program will me give a good occasion to do so. Anyway, there's no urge, and the first option you suggest would be perfectly fine for me, at least for a beginning. Cheers.

Hi xiconet. Sorry for the delay.

You can now download the latest version of the google-drive-ftp-adapter to have multiple user account support. Just run the start2.bat. You can copy and paste and change user and port number parameters.

If you have any problems please contact me. And thank you for using google-drive-ftp-adapter.

Hi Andres. Great news!, I'll give it a try in the next hours and tell you about it. Muchas Gracias!
