Looking for advice on best way of setting up file replication between two Linux servers running Ubuntu. I've previously used rsync, and csync2 in a clustering situation I ran previously.
I know of the following options:
rsync - Easy to use, and will work on all distros.
csync2 - Fast, secure, but I am not sure if that project is even alive anymore.
lsyncd - Seems to be powerful, does real-time or near real-time syncing.
Any other options that should be looked at? Also interested if anyone has used the 2nd or 3rd option above.
I'm dealing with ruby on rails code, and a few ruby websites. No databases required, more or less pure text files.

NFS mount? It kinda depends on what the purpose is. But I agree with Rui's comment, this is asking for opinions.

Couple of configuration issues that might matter. Are the systems 2 feet apart or 2k miles apart? Do you have a master-slave replication or is this bi-directional replication?
