For bidirectional synchronization, I would recommend Unison. AFAIK, it
doesn't have a mode to listen for changes in the background and act on
them immediately, but you could configure a cron job or scheduled task
to invoke Unison every few minutes. If you encountered a problem with
Unison, you can get help via the "mailing list" at=20
