John I'm using OS 8.6. There's a control panel called File Synchronization that does just that. They may have changed the name in X, but I think they still may have the control panel. Back in OS 7 they came out with something called Publish & Subscribe, which was similar, but software vendors didn't embrace it, so it may have died. I think the only one that included it in their software was ClarisWorks/AppleWorks. However, unlike Publish & Subscribe, File Synchronization can be used in both directions. Open your Help files and search for synchronize to see if it's under a different name.
