RE: [coldsync-hackers] ACK timeout

["Brian Holdsworth" <brianh@aruba.homeip.net>]

Scott,

I had this problem with Coldsync v1.6.7.  It was solved by adding the line:

speed: 57600

to my "listen" block in my .coldsyncrc file.  Prior to that, I had no speed
specified.  So, Coldsync should use the speed that the Palm wants.  However,
this does not work at all with my m105 Palm Pilot and I get the ACK timeouts
too.

If I specify 'speed: 57600' or 'speed: 38400', then it syncs fine.

Regards,
Brian
