Re: [PilotMgr] Can Pilotmgr allow a sync from remote Sun System??

[Dan Benton <dan.benton@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Joe,

The best way to theoretically (I haven't personally done this) do this
is is to dial directly into a SWAN modem pool (You will need Palm OS 3.3
or patches) this would give you a PPP connection to SWAN and you could
use the normal Netsync.  It would also mean that you could read your
mail directly via MultiMail or such other program (This does work
although remember to delete your mail as you should not carry it on your
Palm!!).  This is a lot simpler than using a laptop as a middle point
between SWAN & the pilot.

As for AOL.Net, I have no idea.

Regards

Dan Benton
