Hi Mark,


I use WS-FtpPro which comes with a synchronisation tool. You set
the locations and what to do with files which exist or not and you can
also exclude files.

I use this from a batch file called by the windows scheduled
tasks.

Does just what you are looking for and doesn't cost the planet.


Regards,


Paul

Been thinking about remote backups again too.

Seems sensible now I have ADSL at home and work to send stuff to work as
an
off-site backup.  Only stuff I'd want to do is mainly docs and digital
pics.

This was touched on a week or two ago, but is there a good way to do
this
using FTP?

To start off I would create a full remote backup (using my lappy or
whatever
to copy stuff to work) then have some software that would run over night
and
upload any new or changed files to the remote site keeping it in sync.

M.
