ignore synergy sleep
A workaround posted in the bug report that Greg Miller mentioned, is to have the Windows Power Management ignore Synergy's requests.
On the server (keyboard/mouse attached):
powercfg -requestsoverride PROCESS synergys.exe Display System
On the client (uses remote keyboard/mouse):
powercfg -requestsoverride PROCESS synergyc.exe Display System
If you alternate any single computer (for example, a laptop) between server and client, simply run both commands on it.
