Conducting a HotSync operation via a network
When you use the Network HotSync application, you can take advantage of
the LAN and WAN connectivity available in many office environments. The
Network HotSync application 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 application installed, your
computer is on, and the HotSync Manager is running).
To connect to your company’s dial-in server
The Network HotSync application requires the following:
• Your computer has TCP/IP support installed.
• Both your company’s network system and its remote access server
support TCP/IP.
• You have a remote access account.
Everything you need to connect to your company’s dial-in server (network
modem) is included in the Palm Desktop for CLIE software and your CLIE
handheld. You need to activate certain features, however, on both the Palm
Desktop for CLIE software and your CLIE handheld.
