For instance, if user-a deletes a file on NAS-a, then that deletion only gets propagated to NAS-b if the NAS-a->NAS-b rsync runs first. If the NAS-b->NAS-a job runs first, then the deletion is undone.
Then of course there is the case when user-a updates a file on NAS-a, and user-b updates the same file on NAS-b (but differently).
If you have a script that does a true 2-way sync, it would be good to share it.
