sync problem with NR70V and jpilot / pilot-link

Hi everybody,

I am able to backup my clie with coldsync, therefore the usb stuff should be 
set up correctly. But whether I use jpilot or pilot-xfer to backup my clie 
(syncing the conduits should be the next step which should work if backups 
are possible, right?), I only get a message like

er@placebo:~:104 > pilot-xfer -p /dev/ttyUSB0 -b pda
   Port: /dev/ttyUSB0

   Please press the HotSync button now...

and then nothing happens (probably the clie doesn't receive any "go" signal). 
Since coldsync also asks me to press the HotSync button after I already did, 
but then for coldsync the syncing starts right away without pressing the 
HotSync button again (which of course doesn't make sence), I wonder why 
jpilot/pilot-xfer don't start the syncing. Do I have to use any settings? For 
example, the .jpilot/jpilot.rc file says

jpilotrc jpilotrc.default
time 1
sdate 2
ldate 2
fdow 1
show_deleted 0
show_modified 0
hide_completed 0
highlight_days 1
port /dev/ttyUSB0
rate 10
user 
user_id 0
...

the given port is the same that I use with coldsync. Are user and user_id 
filled after the first syncing worked or do I have to enter these by hand? 
And are there additional settings for jpilot/pilot-link? I've read that once 
pilot-link is running, jpilot will also work, so what should I do?

appreciating your input,

Elmar
