I have three separate computers (two with Ubuntu 16.04 and one with Ubuntu 14.04) and now i want all these three computers to connect with a single keyboard and mouse. I have installed synergy in all the three computers through ubuntu software centre. Now, what is the next procedure that i have to follow..??
I followed the link: Use synergy on Ubuntu 14.04 and 16.04 but in vain.



If i give "sudo gedit /home/Dilip/.synergy.conf" in terminal, i am getting an empty gedit (.synergy.conf) screen. nothing else...



Any steps..?? Any suggestions..?
