Synergy configuring Ubuntu as Server, Win 7 as Client

Synergy allows you to easily share your mouse and keyboard between multiple computers on your desk, free of charge and open source code. You just move the mouse (pointer) from the edge of the screen on one computer to the other screen. You can even share your clipboard. All you need is a network connection. The synergy is cross-platform (can run on Windows,mac OS x and Linux).

I use Ubuntu as a server,win7 for client configuration Synergy

Client:

Win7 client is better configured, write the name of the machine on screen name (CMD run hostname command), server IP: Fill in the server IP. The rest should be almost there.

Server:

Ubuntu installs Synergy first, runs the command sudo apt-get install Synergy

Then select a directory, the author is in the home directory, a new document, named Synergy.conf, create the following:

Section:screens
Ubuntu:
Xp:
End
Section:aliases
Ubuntu:
10.12.6.11
Xp:
10.12.6.21
End
Section:links
Xp:
right = Ubuntu
Ubuntu:
left = XP
End

My master-slave IP and name:

Section:screenscam-aspire-v3-572g:desktop-f5gjm0f:endsection:aliases       cam-aspire-v3-572g:192.168.1.100       Desktop-f5gjm0f:192.168.1.115endsection:links       cam-aspire-v3-572g: Right           = desktop-f5gjm0f       desktop-f5gjm0f: Left           = cam-aspire-v3-572gend

Where Ubuntu and XP are the names of the two machines, the IP address is also filled in. The author of Ubuntu is behind, XP on the left. Readers can refer to the changes.

After you finish this step, CD to synergy.conf directory, run command synergys-f--config synergy.conf command

Client side just press the Apply button.

The author later in Ubuntu 14.04 Synergy, found not directly apt-get install Synergy

The author's approach is to install synergy in Ubuntu Software Center and configure it as above.

Another thing to note is that if you use Ubuntu as a server, to use the command synergys-f--config synergy.conf, remember to add an S after synergy, otherwise, Clinet has not been connected to the server, Guess the extra s here should be the meaning of the server.

After the test can be used normally, but it is better to boot from the better
