The problem with that is that if the file is ever stored on a unix disk system it loses the windows native ownership and ACLS. If I didn't care about ownership and ACLs I could just run rsync as a service on the remote windows boxes. I already do that in a couple of cases just to preserve the data, but it does lose ACLs and ownership. However... you did trigger a possible different approach. I've implemented the new free VMware server in a couple of internal projects. http://www.vmware.com/products/server/ I think I have a spare windows nt license that I could run on a VM, then rsync between the windows systems. That might preserve the ACLs. I'll have to play with that.
