    I second that - it only works the first time. But I've only tried it when 
    running the following command in a terminal:
    
    jpilot-sync -l > /dev/null &	# redirect to get rid of the output
    
    The first time is beautiful, though.
    
    One thing to keep in mind is, even though the sync daemon may work, JPilot 
    isn't written to handle its data being updated by the sync daemon. In other 
    words, you'll have to restart JPilot to see the effects of the sync.
    
    On the other hand, 'jpilot -s' does cause the UI to be updated. Perhaps 
    there's a way to get the 'jpilot -l' daemon to execute 'jpilot -s', instead 
    of whatever it's currently doing.
