Please, always post the version and build number of SQLAnywhere that you
are using (e.g. use the command "dbeng9 -v" for SQLAnywhere 9.x).

I don't think I understand the question. The synch client for ASA is
"dbmlsync" for both the personal and network engines.

What have you tried?
What were the results?

Version of my SQLAnywhere is 9.0.2.2451. Whether there is a way to
operate (run) the synch client (dbmlsync) on remote machine from other
computer?

There is a book in the documentation entitled "Server-Initiated
Synchronization" that goes into detail on how events at the consolidated can
trigger a synchronization at the remote database.

No and yes.

No, the dbmlsync command must run on the same machine as the database is
on since it needs to access the transaction log directly.

Yes, because you could look to using the "dblsn" tool (part of
MobiLink's Server Initiated Synchronization) to "listen" for messages
coming over the network and initiate a synch when the right message arrives.

In the SQLAnywhere 9.x online docs, see:

MobiLink Server-Initiated Synchronization User's Guide
The Listener
- The Listener utility

(or read over that whole book for a complete understanding of Server
Initiated Synchronziation).

Hope this helps,
