I am on 12.04 using ubuntuone-client 3.0.1-0ubuntu1.0.1. I actually have two machines that I sync with, having the same Ubuntu version and ubuntuone-client version. One is fine, the other is not.

File sync has frozen within a user-defined folder under my home folder. The graphical client reports in the top-right corner: 'File Sync starting...', but this doesn't change. I have two files with changes that show a syncing overlay in Nautilus. They are both very small text files.

Here are some details:

harb@joan:~$ u1sdtool --status
State: READY
    connection: With User Not Network
    description: ready to connect
    is_connected: False
    is_error: False
    is_online: False
    queues: WORKING

harb@joan:~$ u1sdtool --current-transfers
Current uploads: 0
Current downloads: 0

The status seems to suggest that I am not connected to a network, however I am connected to a network - in fact I am accessing this machine via NX. Is it not working because I am connected via NX?

Happy to provide other info, just not sure what would be useful.
