If it were two machines, you could use Unison, but since you have three and apparently setting up a network filesystem is not an option, you might want to take a look at csync2: http://linuxaria.com/howto/csync2-a-filesystem-syncronization-tool-for-linux?lang=en http://oss.linbit.com/csync2/ You could also use csync2 with lsyncd if you need more instant updates. https://www.axivo.com/community/threads/lightning-fast-synch-with-csync2-and-lsyncd.121/ Nils.
