Can you use Carbon Copy Cloner to create a script to synch the files that you need to the dropbox folder locally, then let the DropBox software do their automatic synching in the background? That way you're not copying the files all the time. You're just setting up the script to do it for you.
A B C
Local Files -------->Local DropBox Folder----->DropBox in the Cloud
\ CCC copies from A>B / \ DropBox copies from B > C /
Since the machines are often on the same network, at that point I might as well just use CCC to clone between the two. Also, having duplicate files will eat up a ton of storage space over time. Plus I'll probably have to drop CCC as I can't afford it anymore (unless they change their license to be more flexible.)

What are "soft links"?

Hard link
Ahh, had you symlink I would have known what you were talking about. Good idea, I'll give that a try.
