Conducting A Hotsync Operation Via A Network; Connecting To Your Company's Dial-In Server - 3Com Palm V Handbook

Conducting a HotSync operation
via a network
When you use the Network HotSync software, you can take
advantage of the LAN and WAN connectivity available in many office
environments. The Network HotSync software enables you to
perform a HotSync operation by dialing in to a network or by using a
cradle that is connected to any computer on your LAN or WAN
(provided that the computer connected to the cradle also has the
Network HotSync software installed, your computer is on, and the
HotSync Manager is running).

Connecting to your company's dial-in server

The Network HotSync software requires the following:
Your computer has TCP/IP support installed.
Both your company's network system and its remote access server
support TCP/IP. (Your system administrator has this
information.)
You have a remote access account. (If you don't have an account,
consult your system administrator.)
Everything you need to connect to your company's dial-in server
(network modem) is included with Palm Desktop software and
organizer software. You need to activate the feature, however, on both
Palm Desktop software and your organizer.
To prepare your computer for a network HotSync operation:
1. Click the HotSync Manager icon
Tip: The Windows system tray is usually in the lower-right
corner on your computer display. The location may vary
depending on the location of the taskbar and the version
of Windows you are using.
