If nobody else is working on the server while you are away,
you can simply copy the entire database (by default, var/Data.fs)
from the server to notebook before you leave, and copy it in the
reverse direction when you get back.

If you need to merge changes in both directions, 
there's no fully automatic system
that I know of. ZSyncer will probably be useful...
