Sync Addins

Sync Addins allow you to choose different methods and places to sync your Tomboy notes. For more information on configuring sync, visit the Sync your notes help page.

Local Directory Sync Service

The Local Directory Sync Service is enabled by default and allows Tomboy to sync its notes to another directory on your computer. This is helpful to create a backup of your notes.

SSH Sync Service

The SSH Sync Service allows you to sync your notes with another computer via the SSH protocol. This plugin is disabled by default. You may need to install the sshfs package for your Linux distribution to make this addin work, which is outside the scope of this help document.

WebDav Sync Service

The WebDav Sync Service addin is enabled by default and allows you to sync your notes with a WebDav remote server. You may need to have the wdfs FUSE file system package installed for your Linux distribution to make this addin work which is outside the scope of this help document.

Web Sync Service

The Web Sync Service addin allows you to sync your notes to a remote web server or service, such as Tomboy Online. At the time of writing, the Tomboy Online service has not launched.
