I need a network based distributed operating system, something like Intermezzo or Coda to keep two servers in sync on one partition. I have a server at work and at home that I want to keep a MyDocuments partition in sync. NFS will not work because I need a offline or online solution. RSYNC will not work, who many inconsistancies from files being created and removed. Will GFS work for my needs when they release U1 for CentOS? If not, does anyone have any coda or intermezzo rpms for CentOS4?
GFS is non trivial to setup, and is not meant for this sort of a role.
Coda seem to publish src.rpm's ( http://www.coda.cs.cmu.edu/pub/coda/linux/RedHat-SRPMS/ ) have you tried a rebuild on CentOS4 ?
Dag has intersync on his repo, but not for CentOS4 - looking at the buildlogs there seems to be an issue ( maybe you can work with his .spec + sources and help sort the issue out ? )
