Thanks for your information, I tried the gpilotd-control-applet --help and
do get some useful information. 
    
To the best of my understanding, I should use gnomecc to configure those
conduits to get the correct id or cap-id. But the problem is
that when I start gnomecc by typing the command gnome-control-center from
redhad 8.0, I can't find anything I can configure the conduits except
Pilot/Handspring Tool, which as I've mentioned in my previous mail that wouldn't
be able to do conduit configuration. So, I just wonder if I have
missed sth when install gpilot or should I do some extra configuration? Besides,
Is there any way I can configure the conduits except using gnomecc?
    
Thanks
