That is a really good solution! I'll need to look closer into how to keep the database concurrent across machines. I was just using a thumb drive. I then tried syncthing which worked really well. But syncthing can do Global discovery and uses relays to send files across the Internet using TLS encryption. I don't want to do that with passwords. I just put up a shared folder on a Raspberry Pi using Samba, and was thinking of storing the file there
Anyway, time for me to look closer at synchronization options. All I know for sure is I don't want that file on Google Drive or Microsoft OneDrive.
