Unfortunately, I can't seem to get Synergy to work between two Mac clients both using 10.7. One is an older 21" iMac and the other is a new 2011 Macbook Air. Here's my synergy.conf, symlinked to my home directory as ~/.synergy.conf

section: screens
    foo:
    bar:
        super = alt
        alt = super
end

section: links
    foo:
        right = bar
    bar:
        left = foo
end

That is, I thought the super = alt trick was mandatory in order to have alt work on Mac but unfortunately, nothing really works. Both the Command and Control keys do NOT work on bar but work fine on foo given that the keyboard is paired with that screen. The keyboard modifier keys are the same on both computers and the making the mouse go between screens works as well.

I was wondering if anyone else had any success or problems running into this issue on 10.7 and was hoping there was a possible fix.

Have you considered using teleport instead of synergy? abyssoft.com/software/teleport It seems to work fine so far on 10.7, other than gestures not being sent to the "controlled" machine. – whaley Aug 17 '11 at 21:21
Unfortunately, I can't seem to get Teleport working on two computers using 10.7 on the current Wifi network. I don't know if there's a port that's blocking them or what but the two just simply don't recognize eachother. – matt Aug 17 '11 at 21:51

How about using Quick Synergy? I have it works on Mac OSX 10.7.1 and Windows 7. If you have 2 Mac I think you don't even need to setup the keys binding. My Procedure
