I run the unison server on a linux machine, and then all the unison clients (which happens to be windows machines) synchronizes against this server, this way I use it as a mini-cvs at work (we are just two developers) and also to synchronize with my computer at home when I want to continue working at home. I start the server on the linux machine with this command: [nelson@sitec07 ~]$ cat unison_start.sh unison -socket 7775 > unison.output 2>&1 & [nelson@sitec07 ~]$ And the windows machines has shortcuts with following command: C:\WINDOWS\unison-2.10.2d-win-text.exe D:\eclipse\workspace\Sancionador socket://192.168.0.44:7775/Sancionador Normally you'll just need to hit ENTER when unison shows files that are going to be synchronized, but a tip for when unison don't know how to proceed(conflict) is to type '?' and then ENTER and unison will show you the descriptions of commands that you need to tell it what to do... IMPORTANT: This way I run unison through plain sockets which is not recommended (but easy to set up), the recommended/secure way is running it through ssh, see unison documentation. _______________________________________________ gnome-list mailing list gnome-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-list
