How To? Keep two machines\folders Synchronized.

Post by *Reva »

Hi I need advice on how to accomplish the below:

I have:
Work Machine: PC1
Home machine: PC2
Transferring Using: 64 MB Pen Flash Drive

On PC1 at Work, I have a folder with a Delphi project with many folder and files inside it, which is about 500 MB. Once I burnt a CD of the Project folder and copied it on PC2 at home.

Now, I want to keep the two folders synchronized everyday[0] using the 64 MB Pen drive.

[0] Day to Day only a max of 10-15 files change.

Can I achieve this somehow?

Thanks in Advance.

Mal angenommen, du drückst Strg+F, wählst die FTP-Verbindung (mit gespeichertem Passwort), klickst aber nicht auf Verbinden, sondern fällst tot um.

Yes, use synchronize dirs with the PC and the CD, then after the comparison, click on "synchronize", and change the TARGET location to the USB stick. You can even specify a zip file like this:
zip:z:\somezip.zip

Make sure to delete somezip.zip on the stick before doing this.

Btw, you don't even need the CD if you don't want to compare by content, a file list created with diskdir will be sufficient.
