I noticed my arrows didn't work to navigate my cursor and I intuitively (dunno why) pressed Ctrl+Alt+Del. So.. it also fixes the cursor keys bug! @Russel: Thans for the Ctrl+Alt+Pause hint! Saved me 90 minutes of googling. Hey this is funny, I had this article open in a tab from your “Synergy 1.3.1: Time Out” tab.

To emulate 'ctrl-alt-del' on Synergy client computers, just put the mouse onto the client screens and press "ctrl-alt-pause". Took me an hour and a half of google searches and reading to find that little treasure. HA – I just found it two seconds after my first post.

However, I am still looking for a method to send "ctrl-alt-del" to the client machine. I am using Synergy V1.3.1 for Windows and tried the HotKey configuration. However the hotkey field requires you to press the actual key sequence, you can't simply type it into the field - and you press the 'ctrl-alt-del' key sequence, the server Task Manager appears nullifying the effort to program the Hotkey. the synergy manual also refers to setting up a --config file with these types of parameters, however the Windows version has no such config file as all parameters are created and stored within the GUI.

I have the server installed on my WinXp box and have a mac-mini hooked up to it via Synergy. But the mac wont accept the windows ctrl key as the apple key! its really annoying when using the keyboard to copy/paste etc. thanks By any chance, have you found a way to make Synergy make a Mac use a Windows keyboard?
