Syncing 2 computers at the same time?

[freema22]

Howdy,
I have two computers at home that are networked together. Is it possible to connect my cradle to one computer, and sync to both at the same time? Please let me know. Thanks!

I haven't tried it but this should work on a Windows environment.

Designate one computer to be your primary Palm desktop and make the Palm folder (ie. C:\Program Files\Palm) shareable to your other computer.

On your other computer, create a mapped drive to the shared folder on your primary computer (ie. drive Z = \\primary_computer\Palm). Then, from the Palm desktop, go to Tools and Options. On the General folder, change the Data Directory to the mapped drive (ie. Z:\).

That's it. Now, when you open the Palm Desktop on your second computer, it will display the data that is stored on your primary computer. Similarly, if you make changes from your 2nd computer, it will be reflected on your primary computer.

One caveat is your primary computer needs to be available (ie. turned on) in order for the 2nd Palm Desktop to access the shared folder.
