Performing 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
technology lets you 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).
To perform a HotSync operation via a network, you must meet the following
requirements:
• 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 in the Palm Desktop software and in your handheld. You need to activate the
feature, however, on both Palm Desktop software and on your handheld.
To prepare your computer for a network HotSync operation:
1 Click the HotSync Manager icon in the Windows system tray.
2 From the HotSync Manager menu, choose Network.
3 From the HotSync Manager menu, choose Setup.
Click here.
Enable Network.
