How to set up synergy.conf with multiple PCs and multiple screens

Question

Greetings, I'm having hard time to figure out, how to set up Synergy on the project. Picture (http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/9/layoutgc.jpg/ ) describes how PCs and screens has to be spread out (rdd2k and sim next to each other and above them dual screen of fdo). OS on all PCs is SLED 11.1. Server is on PC rdd2k, fdo and sim are clients. The problem is, how to define, that PC fdo has dual monitors (Separate X Screen). So my question is: Can somebody help me to ctreate synergy.conf file or at least how to define dual monitors. The rest should be easy.

Thanks ;)

Accepted Answer

This is my configuration file (.synergy.conf) for a dual screen computer (fedora) + laptop (win XP).

section: screens
        fedora:
            halfDuplexCapsLock  =   true
            halfDuplexNumLock   =   true
            halfDuplexScrollLock    =   true
        ibm:
            halfDuplexCapsLock  =   true
            halfDuplexNumLock   =   true
            halfDuplexScrollLock    =   true
    end
    section: aliases
        ibm:
            xibm
        fedora:
            xfedora
    end
    section: links
        fedora:
            right   = ibm
        ibm:
            left    = fedora
    end

The xfedora alias is provided on the server command line:

/synergy/synergy-1.3.8-Source/bin/synergys -c /home/.synergy.conf -n xfedora -l /var/log/synergy.log --daemon

The name xibm is provided on the synergy client.
