Hi all,

I'm in process of designing a new application and need help with one
of the requirements.

Data from many customers is stored in a central (Firebird) database
server. Customer should be able to manipulate his data
(select/update/delete) from a web server via internet, and from his
laptop computer, allowing him to work without internet connection
against a local database. I cannot figure out the right way to get
synchronized data between laptop and main server.

Looking for information about this I found "FiBRE"
(http://fibre.sourceforge.net/) and Sync4j
(http://sync4j.funambol.com). Does anybody have experience with any of
both, or can give any clue about the topic for further reading? Main
server would probably be Linux, laptop clients will be XP.


Thanks in advance,
Aitor.
