Thanks for the link.  Unfortunately, the patch will not patch...  Here's the output when I run the bin file:

./binF0jKp8qlQF.bin: line 1: Index:: command not found

Any thoughts?

There is a patch for netsyncing, that I haven't received much feedback
with.  I think it should work for non-ppp connections (conversely, I
think gnome-pilot may work for ppp connections as-is).  I haven't
got a bluetooth device to fix up that case, but using pi-nredir might
help in those cases.

I haven't thought about multi-user gpilotd...
