NetDiaryServer

This is the main program which handles all the data transfers for the clients. It is usually run on a separate machine, but can be run on a clients machine if a separate server is not available.

ServerSetup

This configures the server program, including the paths for the users to save their data to, and the users database. When the users database is changed it automatically re copies the latest user list to all users.
