DESCRIPTION

        pilot-install-netsync allows the user to read or change the Network Preferences stored on
       the Palm.

OPTIONS

   pilot-install-netsync options
                               -e, --enable

       Enable  the LanSync operation (Used for performing a "Network" HotSync (synchronize across
       the Internet for example) instead of "Local" HotSync).

                               -d, --disable

       Disable the LANSync setting on the Palm

                               -a,
                               --address=address

       Set the IP address of the remote machine you wish to connect  to  via  "Network"  HotSync.
       This  is  not  the  IP  address  of the Palm device itself. In most cases the Palm will be
       assigned an IP address automatically by your desktop or server-side configuration.

                               -n,
                               --name hostname

       Sets the hostname of the remote machine you wish to connect to via "Network" HotSync. This
       is not the hostname of the Palm device itself.

                               -i,
                               --ip ip

       This option is no longer supported in 0.12 - see -a, --address.

                               -m,
                               --mask netmask

       Set  the  netmask of the remote machine you wish to connect to via "Network" HotSync. This
       is not the netmask address of the Palm device itself, it  should  be  assigned  a  netmask
       value at connection time, based on your desktop or server-side configuration.

   Conduit Options
                               -p, --port lt;port>

       Use  device  file  <port> to communicate with the Palm handheld. If this is not specified,
       pilot-install-netsync will look for the  $PILOTPORT  environment variable. If neither  are
       found or supplied, pilot-install-netsync will print the usage information.

                               -q,
                               --quiet

       Suppress 'Hit HotSync button' message
