Nope. I'll give it a spin now.

OK, testing now using the unison-gtk gui from this machine (jaunty) to
another test machine (hardy). Attempting to sync a simple folder in my
home directory here to the remote; login to the remote went just fine
(using ssh), but now unison seems to be very busy scanning everything on
this machine. It's stuck on my 6Gb virtualbox folder...
  Seems odd in that I only wanted to sync a single folder, but I'll wait
until it's finished & post back on the results.

For your connection issue; perhaps you can provide more details?
