Rob,
You might want to check into Robocopy too. You can opt to bring the ACLs
with if you like (if there is a domain trust, that would work), or skip
them if you don't care. There are a ton of options, and it can
effectively do a diff and only bring across the files that have changed.
The downside is that you would have to run it manually when you wanted to
sync things up, it does not keep track of changes on the fly.
