[missing-sync-palmos-talk] Separate WiFi conduit settings?

[Eric Cronin]

I don't seem to be experiencing as much difficulty as others with v4 in 
general, but even sitting 2ft from the basestation I can't get a WiFi 
sync to finish without getting wedged somewhere in the backup stage.  
The palm needs a soft reset to recover, and the PC a reboot (missing 
sync monitor stops responding).  Is there any chance an option for 
different conduit sets to be the default for different synch methods?  
That way for slow connections like wifi, only what's critical could be 
synced...

Also, the mark space website mentions somewhere that the network sync 
has security issues.  Can anyone elaborate on this a little, since 
there's a pretty wide spectrum?  Is it the standard "all your data is 
sent in the clear" problem?  Is it "susceptible to man-in-the-middle"? 
Is it "anyone who can guess your palm's name can connect to the daemon 
and read your files"? Is it "anyone can connect to the daemon without 
knowing anything and do bad things"?  Just trying to get a feeling for 
how much I'm opening myself up to by enabling this.

Thanks,
Eric
