Hi Theresa. I use DB in a few different ways (sometimes to share photos with friends and family, sometimes to swap data files for databases). The key use is to sync a shared password storage system with a co-worker who is hundreds of miles away. That's the most crucial use as we both need it up to date daily and even hourly. That file master copy lives on his computer and is synced via DB, but what has happened is that on my end the sync fails and then my "copy" is not up to date and I can't access certain systems due to the out-of-sync password file system. I can usually fix it but it generally takes a lot of time. I'd love to know what it fails (what the cause is) so I might be able to fix it. Sure would be nice if the sync were more robust.
