Re: [coldsync-hackers] Palm m505 and serial cradles.

Hi Ingo & co.:

I have a successful setup using (mostly) the bits at the end of the
README.daemon file in the distribution.  Rather than using inetd, though
(v1.38, at least, doesn't work using the line presented), I used netcat:

	nc -l 14237 | /usr/local/bin/coldsync -t net -md -

Netcat is at
http://www.atstake.com/research/tools/index.html#network_utilities

Also, I doubt that the netcat invocation above is optimal, but it works
here.

Good luck,
Scott
