I was able to solve this problem (synchronization of the files) from line command launching a script that I wrote....
But I would like also to execute the script AUTOMATICALLY at the boot... Joachim suggest me to try with /etc/rc.local I saw that this file ( /etc/rc.local) is not anymore supported in the latest version of Fedora (http://joshua14.homelinux.org/blog/?p=1377) So* I wrote my new file /etc/rc.local*. But I think that (perhaps) I also have to do some special setting in order that the file /etc/rc.local is used at the boot... So I would like to know if it need to do some special setting in order that the file /etc/rc.local that I wrote it works at the boot.
