RoboCopy is free and was even included in the NT Resource Kit. You snipped out the text so I'll bring it back. "I'm looking for a solution to create a mirror from a networked drive containing some course ware." To me the the above plus the example showing "G:" is enough to indicate that all that is needed is a full copy of the "G:" subdirectory tree containing said courseware. Since it is a Mapped Drive "G:" we are working at the application layer not the protocol layer and thus have a wealth of utilities available to accomplish this task. Erwin did not specify that the tools to be used had to be free and thus that status is a moot point. -- Dave Multi-AV Scanning Tool - http://www.pctipp.ch/downloads/dl/35905.asp
