I use Unison via SSH for this particular problem. Works great! I can
send you some configuration files if you like.

While I don't hot-mount anything, I have configured quickswitch to start
and stop services and copy configuration files around if I run
"switchto <profile>". It enables me to fully configure my Gentoo-based
Thinkpad, including runlevel switches (to disable ssh, mysql, etc. when
not at home, but enabling PCMCIA services). I could also provide some
quickswitch configuration files if you liked.
