Caution: The FFS method should only be considered if you can 100%:
1) No activity (ZERO USE) on the desktop (master).

2) Only 1 remote will be Mirroring (the updates).

Remember a DB entry may not change the book files (it should update a metadata.opf, but there is no way to use just that for a single book)

You get this wrong and you can have a real mess.

If you read on any remote device while away. Update the away master (laptop) first
