Does Rsync have a listen to changes mode? if it does how do i activate it?
I was thinking i use Unison with windows scheduled task to let it run
every 15 minutes if thats possible.

I have a mac pro and a windows Vm which I want to keep sync. I tired
using other Sync programs but they do not seems to be working. I tend

tired SyncToy by MS and Unison. I am looking for a bi-directional sync
program that runs in the background and syncs any changes caused to the
folder. I heard that rsync can slove this problem for me, but I am not
sure how.
For bidirectional synchronization, I would recommend Unison. AFAIK, it
doesn't have a mode to listen for changes in the background and act on
them immediately, but you could configure a cron job or scheduled task
to invoke Unison every few minutes. If you encountered a problem with
Unison, you can get help via the "mailing list" at
