Synching can not be done between two slaves (as you call them).
The synching procedures need the *data* files. And there are no data
files on the laptops which use the notebooks stored on the desktop
computer.
The current data on "slaves" are held in the ON-*cache*. There are no
data files on a computer where the notebooks are used shared.
Just synch each of the laptops with the main computer (desktop).
It's not necessary that ON is open on the desktop. The desktop must be
running, however.

To use *Backups* for synching data would not be a good idea (even it
would work) as backups seldom really are up-to-date. The *current* data
are *not* held in the backup directory. There only the backups are
stored.
But it does not work anyway.
As said synching can only be done with the data files on the main/host
computer being accessible.
