If you're just trying to get remote access to your calendar using a web
browser, you could use any palm-syncable software and tightvnc. You
can find tightvnc in the ports. Tightvnc has a small web server that
allows access to your desktop from a remote internet browser.
Unfortunately, this does not facilitate remote syncing of your palm
device.
To view tightvnc from a web browser, point your url to your desktop
machine using port 5800 + the display number.
Example:
I sync my palm pilot using the jpilot port. I invoke tightvnc on
display 1 on my desktop at hostname.com using:
vncserver :1
To run my desktop from a remote browser, I would point my browser to:
http://hostname.com:5801
Then I run jpilot on my desktop.
I hope this helps.
