OK, I am now all set and things work really nicely!

Well, I can see a couple of cases where it would be expedient to change the configuration. Lets say one of the machines losses a disk and the machine won't be fixed for a week say. Then, once the machine comes back up, I could use a different configuration and sync the files locally on the machine that is available rather than do it over the slow network. I am guessing that this should work. Anyway, I'd like to thank once again the developers for the excellent software and the support. Thank you for your patient answers! cheers, prabhu
