Below is my failed attempt to get this working on two up-to-date Ubuntu
systems:

Here is my output from the client
whitdoug at devlp-whitdoug:~$ synergyc -f 152.2.221.116

Here is my output from the server:
whitdoug at whitdoug-desktop:~$ synergys -f --config synergy.conf

Here is my config file:
section: screens
        whitdoug-desktop:
        devlp-whitdoug:
end
section: links
        whitdoug-desktop:
               left = devlp-whitdoug
        devlp-whitdoug:
               right = whitdoug-desktop

end

Here are the instructions I believe I am following:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynergyHowto .  I did double check my IP
address on the server.

Thanks!
