I'm really confused about this feature. I have three keychains on each of my macs:

G5: kman, System, X509Anchors
PowerBook: login, System, X509Anchors

I turned on syncing for the Keychain, but nothing has changed. I reset the syncing and it is still the same. Can someone explain how this is supposed to work?

BTW, why do I have a keychain with my username, instead of 'login', on my G5?

thanks,
kman

You have to enable syncing in Keychain Access as well. Fire up the app, select the keychain(s) you wany synced, and choose Edit -> Change Setting For Keychain… Then check off Synchronize this Keychain using .Mac. (You'll need to do that for each keychain on each Mac) After it thinks about it, sync your .Mac account.
