It is going to be slooow! You can also try syncing via CVS (and maybe ssh, for
security). Of course it cannot be automatic as an NFS mount would let you, you
will have to write scripts for that. Another method will be via FTP (again,
with ssh, if possible).

Another problem with NFS mounting is that file locking etc. will not be
reliable.
