Sync Amarok

[Craig Ross]

Hi i have a one server with samba and mysql installed, i then mount the
music folder using samba in the same location on every machine and then
point the mysl database at the servers ip address.

This works fine for the desktop machines but for my notebook i want my music
and amarok on the run so i have started using RSYNC to sync my music folder
to my laptop and i have written a MYSQL dump (a script that dumps the whole
data base to a text file on my laptop) and then import that text file to my
laptops MYSQL (this last bit is largely untested)

One thing to note: If i make any changes to the database on my laptop those
changes are not forced back to the media server

Thats just my hack job, there is prob a thousand reasons why you shouldnt do
it
