Anyone out there using Synergy2? Ideally, someone who's running it on multiple OSes (win/mac/unix)?
What it is:

Synergy is just too cool. This is the kind of software that should just be implemented onto evey networked computer by default. It gives you the ability to have control over as many networked computers as necessary using only one keyboard and one mouse. Of course, you need a monitor on every computer that will be used, as it uses ’screens’.
First off, the main purpose that I see this being handy with is server/client or server/server installations. Using a client on the network, you can control your server graphically without the need for using another keyboard and mouse. This could also be handy in server rooms when you need to run various cron jobs on varying servers. Again, one mouse and one keyboard. Lastly, I see this being useful in development environments, where cross platform programs are being built and tested. The dev only needs, that’s right, one keyboard and one mouse. |
I don't think I'll bother going into all the nitty-gritty until/unless someone else here has actually got Synergy2 up & running across multiple platforms and can thus spoon-feed me the advice I need. 
Thanks. |
