You might get by with mounting home directories but I think you
really want more bandwidth for that - and probably something more
reliable.

Or something like unison: http://www.cis.upenn.edu/~bcpierce/unison/

like any other route as far as everything else is concerned, the
packets going over the internet are encrypted, and you can firewall
everything else.
