Just been on the dropbox forums and looked for a "LAN only" sync. Someone suggested WL Sync.
Though to be honest if you aren't hopping between two computers all day, I would just let it sync at a regular interval with robocopy/syntoy. No point going to the extra trouble if you're on one machine at a time only.
You could also add an extra trigger to the scheduled tasks for the sync to happen at logon - so you can be sure you're folder(s) is up to date any time you log in to another machine.
Not sure what the guy meant about DropBox "needing" to use the online servers. If anything it is a thousand times easier to sync to a folder on the same LAN.
