possible to share time across multiple pcs?
Hi, I have several laptops (one for each child now that we have lockdown and they have to school from home). I love your tool but I'd like to be able to share the time used across all the PCs? So I can set them each up with an account and it doesn't matter which laptop they use they get the same time allocation. At the moment they can swap laptops to get more time (cheeky rascals!!)
I tried to put the var/lib/timekpr files on to a NAS and mount the folder. I also tried to create a sym link. This sort of worked but for some reason the files are read only so the work files never get updated and every 30 secs the save fails and notification appears that the time has been updated (I guess this is because the memory is getting reset with the failed disk write?
Any thoughts on a way to do this? Is it supported? I'm thinking of using rsync to sync the folders across each PC so each PC uses it's own local store but the amount of time used is still maintained for each kid across each laptop.
any other suggestions? is this a supported config?
Thanks for your help.
