I setup both linux & window the same as far as breaks, timers and total tim= e goes. I allowed incoming connections on both and on garfield (linux) added, under network on the hosts tab - the win7 box on win7 under network = - garfield There is probably something about starting order, but I have not figured it= out. At the moment I just shutdown both and startup one by one till it wor= ks. I now know "working" is - the little applet updates pretty much in unison b= etween the two boxes, and when a break appears on one box, it also appears = on the other. I can actually see both screens at the same time. So while at work - on the same network, with boxes next to each other - it = works nicely.

(No fir= ewalls) I would like to also track my time on a windows laptop. The laptop is turne= d on and off as I take to and from home/work. It's windows 7 enterprise 64 = bit and running workrave 1.10 I read through the mail list and saw something about having to set up the n= etwork each time you boot. I am prepared to do this if I just knew what seq= uence works. Do I need to make a user & pass ? Does it work without? Do I need to allow incoming connection on both boxes? The windows is the "w= ork" controlled machine and I don't do windows, so that one would be easier= if I did not need incoming connections. When the laptop is home, it can see garfield via VPN, but I doubt garfield = can see it - is this a show stopper? What is the expected behaviour? If I work on garfield for an hour and then = turn on windows - will the windows show I have worked an hour? If my total allowed time is 4hours per day - do I set 4hours on both the li= nux and the windows? Will that allow me 4 hours total vs 4hours on each box= ? I have been using workrave for a long time and it has been very useful. But= I really need to be able to track all my time. I have contemplated reading the code, but I really hope somebody here can g= ive me some idea of how the pieces interact, so I can config it usefully :) Thanks much Bakkies --_000_BY1PR13MB0182AF8AD0B9A2783CC101C4EDC80BY1PR13MB0182namp_ Content-Type: text/html; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <html> <head> <meta http-equiv=3D"Content-Type" content=3D"text/html; charset=3Diso-8859-= 1"> <style type=3D"text/css" style=3D"display:none;"><!-- P {margin-top:0;margi= n-bottom:0;} --></style> </head> <body dir=3D"ltr"> <div id=3D"divtagdefaultwrapper" style=3D"font-size:12pt;color:#000000;font= -family:Calibri,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> <p>I forgot to say - I made a user/pass on both boxes and they are the exac= t same.
