   * By default, the server stores your sync data in a sqlite database (you can use a real MySQL server database if you want), but it will create the sqlite database in ''/tmp'' which is entirely inappropriate.

-  * The python-based Sync Server can run all by itself on a configurable port number (5000 by default) which is just fine if you are its only user in your little LAN. But even Mozilla advises to put a real webserver between you and the Sync Server. In Slackware you can use the apache webserver for this. You must install an additional apache module for this to work: [[http://code.google.com/p/modwsgi/|mod_wsgi]].
