This is just a guess, but I know that unison is using some lock files,=20 and there might be problems with this on nfs mounted directories. I=20 think the problem might be solved if you run unison on both machines,=20 rather than using the mounted directory. If that's impossible, you might=20 be able to change the location of the lock files by changing the root to=20 a local directory.
