RE: Advice for synchronizing server and laptop folders
Someone on this list recommended this to me a while back. I've been using it for several months and it works perfectly. I do something like you want to do. I backup my development machine to a server and synchronize my laptop with the server. That was me, and I am glad you like using it. I use SyncBack in conjunction with my weekly automated drive imaging as an important part of my data back routine. If you use SyncBack for personally owned (non-business) PCs you can use one license for up to 5 PCs. I licensed one app per PC/Server since most of my machines are used for business although located in my home. For the price there was no sense in slicing the license agreement hair. These folks have done a great job with their app. Gil -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Jeff Johnson Sent: Saturday, October 13, 2007 11:55 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Advice for synchronizing server and laptop folders http://www.2brightsparks.com/syncback/syncback-hub.html Someone on this list recommended this to me a while back.

re: Advice for synchronizing server and laptop folders
I did some research and discovered that the Microsoft synchronization is tied to Client-Side Cacheing or Offline Files. I could see some advantages in taking this approach but when I went to set it up on my laptop I discovered that the Offline Files tab is missing. My desktop with XP Pro has it but my laptop with XP Home does not so I guess I'll try the Syncback approach.
