If you want to sync with a device, where KO/Pi is installed, you can easily get the remote file via network with the build in file transfer feature "Pi-Sync": You have first to enable file transfer on the remote device: - Start KO/Pi on the remote device. - Choose Menu Synchronize-Enable Pi-Sync. - Choose a port number, where KO/Pi should listen for file sending requests. Valid port numbers are numbers between 1 and 65565. Do not specify port numbers, that are used by other applications. A port number between 9000 and 9999 is most likely not used by another application. The default port number is 9197 for KO/Pi.

Fill in the needed values: - Password for remote access: The password you specified on the remote device. - Remote IP address: The IP address of the remote device. - Remote port number: The port number you specified on the remote device. Now you can syncronize your local device easily with your remote device.

Please specify the download/upload command ( like scp, ftp, ...) and the file name of the temp file in the corresponding fields. d) Mobile device (cell phone) Note: On the Zaurus you have to install the phoneaccess_xxx_arm.ipk package to be able to access mobile phones.
