SmartSyncPro requires a local drive (like f:) in order to do a incremental backup. It can JungleDrive provides mapping as an http: address (like http://localhost:2667/). They don’t sit nicely together.

Reading the JungleDisk forums, specifically http://forum.jungledisk.com/viewtopic.php?t=21 , there are several options. The one that looks most promising is to replace JungleDisk with S3Drive, which apparently does the same except maps the s3 disk space as a drive.
Nothing against JungleDisk, mind. It works fine for what it does. It just doesn’t do what I need.

Both s3drive and JungleDisk are free, and soon to be Open Source.

I’ll give it a whirl and report more. As this search returns nothing, I’ll assume noone else is talking about this combination. Besides this blog remembers more details than I do.
