Subject:   homedir mirroring nightly, with an nfs overlay?
Message-ID:  <199603112104.QAA08491@neon.Glock.COM>

    I've got two systems up now that I have home directories on, but one of
them will not always be operating in FreeBSD.  The machine "neon" is my desktop
machine, and houses my home directory.  The machine "Glock" is a machine that
can always be counted on to be in FreeBSD, and I'd like to have access to my
home directory there as well.  What I want to do is mirror the files from neon
to Glock nightly, so that I have a <24 hour old copy on Glock to use in case
the copy on neon is not available due to me being in another operating system.

    What I'd like to do is have an nfs mounted copy available when neon is up,
but have the local copy mirrored the previous night available in the event that
neon times out.  Is this possible with amd or standard nfs mounting?  Thanks
for any suggestions!
