Slony-I questions

Psychopsam
So on the quest of trying to synch two or more db's I've had problems try to get two PSQL Replicator db's to connect.

My requirements are as follows
  • Two way comms - master / slave model wont work
  • The "other" db is on another continent where the connection drops out all the time.
  • Merging is not an issue - it must lock tables and / or columns

So I started looking at Slony-I which is built into PSQL. but I stumbled across this info (below) pretty early on and I was wondering if people have found a work around for this or can suggest other replication techniques / software to deal with this - for what I require above.
If you have nodes that are likely to regularly drop onto and off of the network, or have nodes that cannot be kept secure, Slony-I is probably not the ideal replication solution for you.
It is also true that Slony-I is Master/Slave -
Slony-I is a "master to multiple slaves" replication system supporting cascading and slave promotion.
