Travis, How do you handle the database? Are you using the registry database?

When one file changes on oner server, it is automatically changed on the other server. If one file is deleted on one server, it is deleted on the other server. Or you can set it up where if a file is deleted, don't delete it over on the other server. I have used it for common network shares and even tested it on the Imail user directories and it works great. It costed me about $600 if I remmeber correctly and an open file agent can be added to run schedule syncs.
