Folder Syncing Windows
| Posted by Jeremy, 10-15-2009, 09:38 PM | | Hey All,
I have a simple question on keeping a single folder up2date from a master image.
We ship out a PC running windows vista and use this PC as a jump box to gain access to the network (thin clients, server, switches etc.) this box also keeps the latest ISOs for any software. I find myself uploading new firmware isos to these pc every now and then but id like to have them just there checking once a week.
Is there any aka free software that will allow me to have a golden image and say... 300+ clients connect to to pull any/all the files in there??
ideas i have are run a webserver with opendir and just have rsynce pull them via a batch file but having a hey this client didnt check in would be nice...
Any ideas?

I found FullSync on sourceforge finding it easy to use... but it doesn't autostart on boot... even adding it to a task to kick off at boot doesn't work.
