Download synergy from http://sourceforge.net/projects/synergy2/files/ and install on the machines you want to participate in sharing. For this example let’s say I two systems with hostnames notebook and desktop, and I want to share the keyboard and mouse of desktop.

Create a configuration file, something like this:

 
section: screens
  mydesktop:
  mynotebook:
end
 
section: links
  mynotebook:
    left = mydesktop
 
  mydesktop:
    right = mynotebook
end

On desktop run:

 
synergys -f --config synergy.conf

On notebook run:

 
synergyc -f desktop
