As you are aware (since you participated in the thread discussion about 
this months ago), Timo is working on a total rewrite of dsync, and if 
memory serves, it is mainly for 2.1+, and it is not recommend to use it 
in earlier versions if you need reliability (ie, 2.0.x, as you are using)...

So, by all means, update and help timo make it better!

Timo? Care to elaborate on where you are with this, and how much of the 
rewrite is being applied to 2.1 (all of it?), or backported to earlier 
versions?
