I do not use (or know anything about) familiar.  Are you using the latest 
versions of gpesyncd (and the libraries it depends on) and opensync?

That might mean that is working.  When you do the ssh command above you will 
normally see no output (it is waiting for input from you).  Try 
entering "4:help" (without the quotes).  You should see the help.  Then 
try "4:quit".  You should see the gpesyncd exiting messages and get your 
prompt back.

If that is working, I would check that gpesyncd can see the entries on your 
handheld.  Log in to the handheld using SSH and issue the gpesyncd command 
(with no options).  Use the three UIDLIST commands (UIDLIST VCARD, UIDLIST 
VTODO, UIDLIST VEVENT) to check that gpesyncd can see the entries in your GPE 
database.  You can use the GET command to check a few entries to make sure 
they look reasonable (GET VCARD nnn, where nnn is one of the numbers 
displayed before the ":" from the UIDLIST command).

If all that is working then the problem seems to be at the Opensync end.  Try 
setting up a sync between GPE and filesync (with an empty directory).  If 
that doesn't work, post the output from that attempted sync.
