    How do I sync my 2 music folders on to my NAS?

    Hello,
    I cannot figure out how to sync my music folders from 2 different computers to my NAS to be streamed back via my DAAP server.

    How would I do this? I already have the DAAP up and streaming my content, but how would I mirror my music folders onto the NAS so that all music is universal? Or am I looking at this wrong?

    Thanks in advance.

    Using Ubuntu 11.10 on all machines. and a Netgear Readynas Duo running Debian I think.

    I think the "good" answer is rsync. I'd probably do something like a find with a date or a cp -u in a cronjob.
