DESCRIPTION

	pilot-install-netsync allows the user to read or change the Network Preferences stored on the Palm.

OPTIONS

   pilot-install-netsync options
			       -e, --enable

       Enable the LanSync operation (Used for performing a "Network" HotSync (synchronize across the Internet for example) instead of "Local" Hot-
       Sync).

			       -d, --disable

       Disable the LANSync setting on the Palm

			       -a,
			       --address=address

       Set  the  IP  address  of  the  remote  machine you wish to connect to via "Network" HotSync. This is not the IP address of the Palm device
       itself. In most cases the Palm will be assigned an IP address automatically by your desktop or server-side configuration.

			       -n,
			       --name hostname

       Sets the hostname of the remote machine you wish to connect to via "Network" HotSync. This is not the hostname of the Palm device itself.

			       -i,
			       --ip ip

       This option is no longer supported in 0.12 - see -a, --address.

			       -m,
			       --mask netmask

       Set the netmask of the remote machine you wish to connect to via "Network" HotSync. This is not the netmask  address  of  the  Palm  device
       itself, it should be assigned a netmask value at connection time, based on your desktop or server-side configuration.

   Conduit Options
			       -p, --port lt;port>

       Use device file <port> to communicate with the Palm handheld. If this is not specified, pilot-install-netsync will look for the	$PILOTPORT
       environment variable. If neither are found or supplied, pilot-install-netsync will print the usage information.

			       -q,
			       --quiet

       Suppress 'Hit HotSync button' message

			       -v, --version

       Display version of pilot-install-netsync and exit without connecting.

       Display the help synopsis for pilot-install-netsync and exit without connecting.

			       --usage

       Display a brief usage message and exit without connecting.
