That seems to work mostly as expected within a running emacs session if I quit gnus, rsync all files and restart gnus. In particular, gnus will then use the .newsrc.eld file from the other machine. But gnus-clear-system does not clear gnus-save-newsrc-file-last-timestamp. So when gnus wants to save again the .newsrc.eld file, it compares the timestamp of the file on disk against the old timestamp of the old file from the previous gnus session. That old file is already gone anyway. - Instead of clearing gnus-save-newsrc-file-last-timestamp when quitting gnus, could it also make sense to (re)set this variable whenever .newsrc.eld is read? (I am new to the world of gnus. I hope I am not missing yet more obstacles for what I would like to achieve.)
