How do you "link" the two? I now have a carddav config "remote", and an evolution config "local", but how do I run the "remote" <-> "local" combined config? I think I need to do this manually, because I don't see a template for Evolution mail. I don't understand where in the man page it tells me how to do that. I now am getting: ➤ syncevolution --run ev-local-addr ... [INFO] @default/addressbook: using configured database=zoho-backend [ERROR] sending message to child failed: org.syncevolution.gdbuscxx.Exception: 1483751134.3343.16@tara/address bo ok: datastore not configured ... with the configurations: ➤ syncevolution --configure backend=carddav username=&#39;eric(a)oco.nnor.org&#39; password='xxxxxxxx' syncURL='https://con ta cts.zoho.com' zoho-backend addressbook ➤ syncevolution --configure syncURL='local://1483751134.3343.16@tara' database=zoho-backend peerIsClient=1 ev-local-addr addressbook I don't understand why I would be getting this message, because I configure the evolution addressbook in the second line.

You need two datastores for that and thus two backends, not just one. > I guess when I do --print-databases, I refer to them using the > thing > in > between parenthesis? > > What is SyncML?

It's just the general concept (configure two sides, hook them up) which needs to be understood. Which documentation did you follow to get started? The README.rst explains the general concept in the "Synchronization beyond SyncML" section and "CalDAV and CardDAV" how to use that for CardDAV. The same content is also on syncevolution.org together with specific HOWTO articles about other setups. Unfortunately the rendering there got broken in several places when moving to a new Drupal version. I'm not sure yet what to do about that - abandon Drupal, fix its setup (a bit out of my league), or fix each broken page - all not very attractive :- /
