Synergy - A Software KVM

next up previous contents index

Synergy is a software KVM. This means that you do not need to buy an expensive hardware KVM!

To use synergy, install the package: 



wajig install synergy


Next, create a config file /etc/synergy.conf: 



section: screens
  computer1:
    
  computer2:
    
end

section: links
  computer1:
    right = computer2
  computer2:
    left = computer1
end

section: aliases
  computer1:
    computer1.hostname.com
  computer2:
    computer2.hostname.com
end


Then, start the server on the computer with the keyboard and mouse you want to use: 



synergys -f


And lastly, we start the client(s): 



synergyc -f --no-camp server-hostname


Move the cursor to the right of computer1 and it should pop up on computer2! The clipboard is even shared across the computers.
