remote server only used for dropboxes. Is it possible ?



Hi,

As far as I understand from my readings (3 days) remote server needs to
have a synchronizer either with internet or indirect synchronization.

I can't really understand why don't we just have dropboxes (with UNC
paths) on the remote server (RemSrv) and each synchronizers running
locally in location A and location B and so on.

Am I missing something ? If A has a dropbox on RemSvr and B, C and
others know that why can't they just exchange data ? Or can they ?

thanks in advance
