Hi! At the moment I am cloning my old server to a new one via rsync. on this run besides syncthing also various other services. Now I strongly assume that the server (at restart) will have the same ID as the old one. If this is the case, how can I prevent (before starting syncthing) that I have two servers with the same ID in the network?
You need to delete the two key files cert.pem
and key.pem
(see https://docs.syncthing.net/users/config.html). This will force Syncthing to generate a new ID when you launch it afterwards.

And, because it has a ‘new’ ID, you’ll need to accept the solicitation on the associated Syncthing systems…
