your files. To set up your system to automatically synchronize linked files:

1

2

Use the AutoRemounter control panel to reconnect to shared disks.

See Chapter 3 for instructions on automatically remounting to shared disks.

Drag an alias of the PowerBook File Assistant icon to the Startup Items folder.

The Startup Items folder is in your PowerBook’s System Folder.

See the user’s guide that came with your PowerBook for help on creating an
alias.

Now whenever AutoRemounter mounts your volumes and the PowerBook
File Assistant is running, all automatically linked pairs are synchronized.
