Hi,

I am trying to figure out a good way to get 2 copies of evolution to
sync with each other, as well as with my palm pilot.

Sheesh, this needs to be in a FAQ somewhere -- I've posted it to this
list at least three times.

Anyway, attached is my sync script, which uses rsync (since I'm almost
always going one-way, and unison is much slower than straight rsync).
But if you want to use unison, and get two-way syncing of everything but
the gconf database, just replace the rsync call with the appropriate
unison call & config file.

If you want to achieve two-way sync of the gconf database, you'll need
to shut down gconf on both machines, use unison to sync the
~/.gconf/apps/evolution tree, then restart gconf on both machines.  I'm
not saying it's a good idea or necessary, just that that's a way you
could accomplish it :)
