Address Book Server 26 August

Address Book Server 26 August is a helpful tool which allows you to sync your coontacts with others on the same network as well as over the internet. Contacts are synchronised with your own instance of Address Book Server. Address Book Server comes in two parts a server and a client. The server should be installed on a centrally accessible Mac. The client goes on every Mac, whose Address Book you would like to synchronise. During synchronisation contact information is fetched from the ABS server, compared with the local content, and any changes are written back to the server.
