Ok, the machines MUST be able to ping each other. If they can't, you need to get that sorted first. If they have funky network configs, you should try to ping via IP addresses instead of host names and see if that works and you may have to add some routes to get it functional. Note that the Synergy configs will work with IPs or hostnames (or both), but the machines involved MUST be able to talk to each other.
Pinging works OK on the 192.168.v.w subnet that they're both in. But looking at ifconfig, the "real" address is a 10.x.y.z one and the 192.* one is... something else. They can ping each other on the 192.* address but not on the 10.* address.
I can get the server to start on the host (i.e. with k/b & mouse) but the remote machine I want to control says it can't connect.
