Looking for hard-to-server FTP file synchronization app [solid server] [file synchronization]

Q: I have a Win2K3 Server that I like a backup at night, through the network to an FTP server. It has a good amount of data so I would only want to sync changes (if possible, the changes within files). Any suggestions for an app to use? Thx:)


Final Sync – Automatically Synchronize Your Files!
Re:I've used rsync and love it. Actually that's exactly what I'm looking for only something designed for Windows. I don't know if I'd trust cygwin in a production env though… There's a windows binary of rsync too but it's still based on cygwin dll's. I may test that out in the end since there doesn't seem to be an obvious equivelant in Windows that I was missing. Thanks again!

Re:rsync
Might have to use cygwin on the windows side …. I'm not sure if there's a native windows version. Or guy's suggestion.

That's the fallback if I can't find anything that can sync only changes rather than changed files. Thanks for the feedback though!

Thats what incremental backups are for. Do an incremental backup to a file then FTP the file somewhere.

Re:What about the built-in FTP command line tool? You could easily write a batch script and schedule it to run nightly.
