Synergy-share a set of mouse and keyboard with two computers-Linux & windows tutorial

A few days ago, I moved my desktop computer to the lab and used it with my computer. For ease of use, I tried to use the software to implement a public set of mouse and keyboard for the two computers and share the clipboard. In the spirit of sharing, write down your experiences and hope to help those who need them.

First of all, I installed both Linux and windows xp dual systems. Currently, no matter which system the two machines are running, shared mouse keys can be implemented from the appearance of the login interface (for example, move the mouse to the left side of the current display on the right side, and move the mouse to the left side of the screen, the mouse on which screen, the keyboard input is targeted at that screen), and the text copied on one computer can be directly pasted to another computer, however, you cannot copy files using Ctrl + C Ctrl + V.

Principle

Synergy is an open-source software with Linux, Mac, and windows versions. To share the mouse and keyboard, you must install the software on all machines and configure it accordingly, there is a unique host as the server, and other hosts as the client. The mouse and keyboard to be shared are linked to the server. All Hosts must be connected to the same LAN. synergy exchanges mouse and keyboard input information over the LAN to share the mouse and keyboard with other hosts.

Install

1. If the server is a Windows system, download and install synergy windows. Http://www.onlinedown.net/soft/5666.htm (download page of huajun)

2. If the server is linux, download here: http://sourceforge.net/project/s... up_id = 59275 & release_id = 406637. Ubuntu can be directly installed through the source, or: sudo apt-get install synergy.

The software to be installed is the same on both the server side and the client side, but the configuration is different.
