26                               -e, --enable
27
28
29       Enable  the  LanSync operation (Used for performing a "Network" HotSync
30       (synchronize across the Internet for example) instead of  "Local"  Hot‐
31       Sync).
32
33                               -d, --disable
34
35
36       Disable the LANSync setting on the Palm

40
41
42       Set  the  IP  address  of the remote machine you wish to connect to via
43       "Network" HotSync. This is not  the  IP  address  of  the  Palm  device
44       itself. In most cases the Palm will be assigned an IP address automati‐
45       cally by your desktop or server-side configuration.
46
47                               -n,
48                               --name hostname
49
50
51       Sets the hostname of the remote machine you  wish  to  connect  to  via
52       "Network" HotSync. This is not the hostname of the Palm device itself.
53
54                               -i,
55                               --ip ip

61                               --mask netmask
62
63
64       Set  the netmask of the remote machine you wish to connect to via "Net‐
65       work" HotSync. This is not the  netmask  address  of  the  Palm  device
66       itself, it should be assigned a netmask value at connection time, based
67       on your desktop or server-side configuration.
