Inter-machine notifications

Hello,

We have a Core Data app running on 5 computers. We've used a variety of kludges and nasty overkills to keep the data consistent on the shared sqlite database. Now, however, it appears that we will need some kind of notifications for critical inventory changes to the database.

I implemented a NSDistributedNotificationCenter notification but realized it was not as distributed as I had thought (only intra-machine). I prototyped Distributed Objects but after setting up a connection and a server protocol, I couldn't easily get the proxy object from one machine to the other and thought it didn't look like the right mechanism anyway (no notification, too client-servery, not peer enough by default). Sync Services is a possibility but I really just want a notification - not a synchronization.

What approach do others use for inter-machine peer notifications?

Thanks in advance for any helpful comments or sample code,

Steve
