Learn something new every day…
Summary:
I’m using Unison from the University of Pennsylvania to do a two-way synchronization of some of my work files. I’m basically backing up my files from my work laptop and desktop.
Shared Keys:

(To set up shared keys… no password for ssh)
Crontab:
http://www.adminschoice.com/docs/crontab.htm
(Set up crontab to run unison at preset times)
My crontab:
30 9,15 * * * /sw/bin/unison -batch -servercmd /sw/bin/unison /WCLD ssh://jsa161mp.local//Volumes/jsa161mp700/WCLD
(Run every day at 9:30am and 3:30pm, -batch in unison runs without prompts)
