That's what I would have thought (and tried, actually), but it doesn't
help either...

See what happens with "type: psys/sprf;":

	Running sync conduits for "Saved Preferences".
	Trying conduit [generic]...
	  This conduit matches. Running "[generic]"
	  This is a default conduit. Remembering for later.
	Trying conduit /home/hmo/palm/SetSysDateTime.pl...
	  This conduit matches. Running "/home/hmo/palm/SetSysDateTime.pl"
	Looking for built-in conduit "/home/hmo/palm/SetSysDateTime.pl"
	spawn_conduit: tochild fd == 7
	spawn_conduit: fromchild fd == 8
	Conduit PID == 17221
	Inside mkpdbname("/home/hmo/.palm/backup","Saved Preferences")
	mkpdbname:    -> "/home/hmo/.palm/backup/Saved Preferences.prc"
	>>> Daemon: coldsync
	>>> Version: 2.1.3
	>>> InputDB: /home/hmo/.palm/backup/Saved Preferences.prc
	>>> OutputDB: /home/hmo/.palm/backup/Saved Preferences.prc
	>>> SPCPipe: 4
	No handler defined for creator "psys", type "sprf"
	Child has printed to stdout.
	cond_readline: About to select()
	cond_readline: select() returned 1
	cond_readstatus: <<< "501 No handler defined for creator "psys", type "sprf""
	run_conduit: got status 501

This is the script:

	#!/usr/bin/perl
	
	use strict;
	use ColdSync;
	use ColdSync::SPC;
	use Palm::Raw;
	
	StartConduit("sync");
	
	@_ = localtime(time);
	$_[5] += 1900;	# year correction
	++$_[4];	# month 0..11 -> 1..12
	
	&dlp_SetSysDateTime(reverse @_[0..5]) && die "501 Cannot SetSysDateTime";
	
	EndConduit();

Besides, ColdSync is still Load()ing and Write()ing the database which
is entirely pointless in this particular case.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Helge
