Mac,

To sync my feeds up between my main laptop, Ubuntu-vmware image on my 
Windows work-supplied laptop and the desktop in my home office (aka back 
of garage! :)) I just rsync my liferea profile to my home/backup server.

I have alias's set so I can 'put' and 'get' as required. Although a bit 
manual, it means I can both backup my feeds/articles and push/pull them 
to which ever machine I'm using at the time.

Below is the alias's from my .bash_alias if it helps:
alias lifeget='/usr/bin/rsync -avz --delete --force -e ssh 
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/mnt/backup/stuart/LifereaProfile/ /home/stuart/.liferea_1.4'
alias lifeput='/usr/bin/rsync -avz --delete --force -e ssh 
/home/stuart/.liferea_1.4/ [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/mnt/backup/stuart/LifereaProfile'

I do basically the same for my thunderbird and firefox profiles also, 
but as well as having aliases for these, I have a bash file which has a 
minimal amount of checking in it, to try and avoid writing the wrong way!

Hope that helps a little.
