If you're talking about 0.3, forget it. For 0.22, there's a commented
version in the package as the
file /usr/share/opensync/defaults/syncml-obex-client . You may also want
to search the opensync site for pages that mention your device by name,
or just google for your device name and 'opensync', as syncml is fairly
finicky and you may find it needs some particular settings to work
right. Or just won't work right at all no matter what you do, like my
Nokia 6300. In which case the gnokii plugin may do the trick, for
syncing contacts.

For Mandriva I used to have the old KDE 3.5 Kitchensync packaged, which
was a great opensync GUI as it actually presented the module
configurations in a nice abstracted pointy-clicky way. But we can't
really realistically package it for Fedora 11, it'd be a pain to extract
it from kdenetwork and build it with all the old KDE 3 deps.
