Here's the guide....
http://docs.marklogic.com/4.2doc/docapp.xqy#display.xqy?fname=http://pubs/4.2doc/xml/replication/title.xml

It seemed to me to be more feature rich than XQSync,  For example, flexrep
can *immediately* keep two databases in sync as soon as documents are
updated or added to one.

Plus, you can configure it all within the admin UI  (no more looooong java
command).
