rsync is your best option on linux On windows? Well, install cygwin (or at least a barebones version of cygwin) and see http://www.gaztronics.net/rsync.php

That URL seems to be dead, for me at least. There is a short FAQ on how to install rsync on NT or W2K at this URL: http://linux.wku.edu/~brent/rsyncntdoc.html and it has working links to the pieces of Cygwin and MS Resource Kit that are required. --Michael Dillon
