Syncing - Effort To Create A Definitive Doc, What does/doesn't work with Win & Linux Options

[lardman]

I keep seeing posts about trying to sync with OZ, I know nothing about sync'ing as it's not something I've done for a long, long, long time.

I'd like to create a doc which lists the options and drawbacks of the various methods.

I wonder if those of you who do, or who have tried and failed to varying degrees could post to say what does & doesn't work. Please include - your PC OS, your OZ version (& settings in the security applet if applicable), connection method, the sync software (with an URL might be nice ;-)), what does & doesn't work in the sync process, etc.

Many thanks,

mines working. I upgraded to 3.13(Sharp) and it just started working. my /etc/network/interfaces reads

CODE

#Zaurus(USB) interface
iface usb0 inet dhcp

My Z is set to run a dhcp server, otherwise you'd have to set both computers(Z and laptop) to use a static IP address

My Opinion is that syncing should work out-of-the-box, not with these ugly hacks. Yes, I know they are trivial things for some of us, but OZ should work for people without Linux Knowledge!
