syncing /home directories accross computers
Hi
I was wondering if anyone could point me in the direction of any howtos around this.
I have 3 computers:
Desktop - Dendrite - Ubuntu 9.10
Laptop - Axon - Ubuntu 9.10
Netbook - Synapse - Eeebuntu 9.10
All with their own home drives. My media (music, films, photos etc) is kept on a separate (Vista) partition on my Desktop with symlinks from my home directory on Dendrite.
Ideally, I'd have the /home directory synced across all 3 computers. I had been toying with the idea of a networked /home kept on an external HD plugged into synapse, but not sure how this would work out with Axon out of the reach of the network. I have dyndns set up and can access the home network over ssh, but obviously that's impractical (I assume) for a home drive.
Thoughts? Ideas? Pointers? I'm comfortable playing around with fstab, nfs and the terminal, but still very much a beginner.
...awfully glad to be a beta
