    Greetings from Denmark! The weather is getting a little warmer over here.

    Here's my question:
    I run a little webdesign shop - one man band.
    I have three computers on a LAN connected to the net via a router + adsl connection.
    One computer has SuSE 9.0 installed. I use it as an apache, mysql, sendmail server.

    Another computer on the Lan is also a SuSE 9.0 box. It is sightly used as a workstation, mainly for surfing the net and emailing. I would like to use this computer as a backup of my server just in case something should happen.

    What is the easiest way to sync the two machines?

    What I am interesting in syching:
    1. htdocs /srv/www/htdocs
    2. the mysql database
    3. My Apache configuration file at /etc/httpd/httpd.conf

    I'm a newbie so I'll need pretty detailed instructions. I would like the two machine to sync nightly.
    Do apache, mysql on the server have to shut down in other to sync or can they sync "on the fly"?

    Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

    Regards,
    Dan
