-----------------------------------------------------
Getting real close. I am getting an error on sync and have 1 question,
so...
The error is;
msynctool --sync EvoBarry
Synchronizing group "EvoBarry"
Member 2 of type barry-sync had an error while connecting: (-1, error
sending control message: Operation not permitted): Probe: GetConfiguration
failed
Member 1 of type evo2-sync just connected
Member 1 of type evo2-sync just disconnected
All clients have disconnected
The sync failed: Unable to connect one of the members
Error while synchronizing: Unable to connect one of the members
The questions is;
the config-barry1 shows the templates for calendar, addbook and tasks, but
the config-barry2 has the pin then only 2 1's (for add/calendar), so should
those change at all?
Thanks again.
