Hi Geza,

sorry for the delayed answer. I lost your mail somewhere in my "to answer" 
folder.

I use "second copy 2000" to sync the folders.

The synchronising of the registry is a bit mess right now. I use batch scripts 
to do that:
Dumping the HKLM\Software\Ipswitch\domains in a file, transport it via ftp to 
the target
server. After finishing everything, the batch sends a mail to the target 
server. The
account is a program alias pointing to batch. This batch gets the registry 
file, deletes
first all hosts in the registry and adds the cloned data. At the end, the 
services will be
restarted.

I'm not really happy with this solution

I have some ideas for a web based solution based on ColdFusion. It "smells" 
like, that a
programming a nice web service will be a solution.
