Yeah, your problem description is clear enough. If you want true
redundancy and the data available from both machines, you're talking
about more of a clustered filesystem like Veritas CFS or maybe Andrew
FS / DFS from Transarc.
However, you might also find something like /usr/ports/net/unison a
reasonable alternative:
