Robert, I forgot to tell, that though the client machines are
connected through the open internet, they are connected to the local
network of the Rivendell server via VPN. So I thought that the clients
could be connected direct to the server MySQL without any problems?
It's only /var/snd that needs to be cached/synced because of the slow
network speed.

Kind regards,

Morten
