That sounds brilliantly close to an accurate description. I'll try that command. I'm presuming that I need to do it to all 6 user sides? I'm comfortable enough with Terminal. But, for my education, could you describe trickle syncing and what this command does? Or, you could refer me to an article. It's not that I doubt, I just like full understanding.
Regardless, this could be a huge help. Thank you!
