[coldsync-hackers] Visor Edge not recognized

[Benjamin Reed <ranger@befunk.com>]

I have a Visor Edge that I'm connecting to over a serial
cradle; it has previously been set up under Windows, and
so already has a user and ID number, and has a bunch of
stuff that I don't want deleted until I can back it up.  =)

However, when I run coldsync, I get:

  Error: This Palm has user ID 4245 (I was expecting 501).
  Syncing would most likely destroy valuable data. Please update your
  configuration file and/or initialize this Palm (with 'coldsync -mI')
  before proceeding.
          Your configuration file should contain a PDA block that looks
  something like this:
  pda {
          snum: "*Visor*-G";
          username: "Ranger Rick";
          userid: 4245;
  }

...when it shouldn't be expecting 501.  My ~/.coldsyncrc has:

  listen serial {
    device: /dev/pilot;
    speed: 57600;
  }
 
  pda "Visor Edge" {
          snum: "*Visor*-G";
          username: "Ranger Rick";
          userid: 4245;
          directory: "~/.visor";
          default;
  }

Any ideas why it's not picking up the userid (and other
things) that I'm setting in the .coldsyncrc?  Am I missing
something simple?
