This message only occurs, if Palm OS 4.0 syncs within protocol implementation
(old HotSync-desktop software or pilot-link). The cause is the version number in DLP
(Palm OS uses 1.3). If the desktop (pilot-link) reports pre 1.3 version (means no new
password scheme), this message occurs.

Fix:
in dlp.c dlp_ReadSysInfo()

  Trace(ReadSysInfo);
  dlp_buf[0]=0;
  dlp_buf[1]=0x01;      // report we are DLP v1.3
  dlp_buf[2]=0;  
  dlp_buf[3]=0x03;
  result = dlp_exec(sd, 0x12, 0x20, dlp_buf, 4, dlp_buf, 256, 1);

Before an other dlp_* call, you should call dlp_ReadSysInfo() first to obmit the 
version
number to the device.

Result:
On a password enabled device, HotSync start only if the password is typed correctly. 
There
is NO secure encryption on the protocol, nor the desktop software reports the password 
to
the device.
