I want to replicate a directory structure from a win2000 server to a winnt server initially but then after that I want to do two way replication of the same structure. What tool can I use that can also be scheduled?

Thanks,
Chris

A batchjob using ROBOCOPY from the resource kit should do the trick. Schedule the job with "scheduled tasks".

Hi, Thanks, I tried robocopy! It is great for one way replication. I couldn't find a way to use it for two way replication??

How about using two scheduled tasks from your Windows 2000 server. One task would use XCOPY to copy the data TO the NT box, the second once would use XCOPY to copy the data FROM the NT server.
