Is there a way to manage a directory structure on a remote laptop that sometimes comes into the office? I also need to manage a local workstation attached to our network
Here's the issue: SOME directories are named the same, even though they're on different drives. The CONTENTS of these SAME named directories need to be managed so that IF a file is added to the directory (on either 'side') then that file gets copied to the other directory. If a file is CHANGED, I'd like to be notified or I'm open to a variety of options here
I just need to keep some directories in sync
TIA
