last time i tried to sync some notes with my laptop and a
destktop-machine some of the my most important notes get lost. this is
how it happend
im using the "local folders" sync method over a nfs-share, cause the
other methods like webdav and ssh don't work.
1. syncing from my laptop to local folders worked. all notes got updated
on the server.
2. i tried to sync my desktop to the new repository. it stalled somehow.
i cancelled it. next time i tried sync it seemed to work again.
3. then to get the new status on my laptop i tried to sync again. now
all new notes got deleted.

accidently i had the settings on to overwrite the local changes with the
ones of the server.

so just as a reminder for others: don't use tomboy sync without a backup.

regards

zsolt
