Brian,

This software, second copy 2000, can help you.
You can create profiles, skip files or dir and use
different sync ways (single copy, sync, copy to zip ....)

All Windows environment.  It doesn't look like rsync has been ported to
windows. 

These are just file servers and I am not interested in real time just
synching the directories every night.

Thanks,

Brian

Well, mirroring a live filesystem might mean different things to
different
people.  For instance if you have a database on it, you might need the
remote
system to be in sync at a time when the database is in a consistency
mode.

You could always use 'rsync', but you have to be careful that updates on
the
source system during the rsync may or may not be reflected on the
target.

If you're certain that there are no updates to the source filesystem
during
the night, then it would be fine.
