I have a Mac dekstopdesktop that is not always on, and a Mac laptop that is usually on the same network. II have a new Synology drive that is always on and I'm considering making use of the ldapLDAP server on it for the Mac accounts. IdeallyIdeally, I would like to have the laptop and desktop's home directory syncronized through it as well. I'mI'm aware of Portable Home Directories, but I don't have Mac OS X Server installed and my desktop isn't on all the time to sync with the laptop.
