Abstract: This is the second in a series of papers on natural modification of the
normal tractor connection in a parabolic geometry, which naturally prolongs
an underlying overdetermined system of invariant differential equations.
We give
a short review of the general procedure developed in \cite{hsss} and then
compute the prolongation covariant derivatives
for a number of interesting examples in projective, conformal and
Grassmannian geometries.
