Writing a service to synchronize two folders?

Question

I need to sync two folders on another host in Windows. I really think that something has already been done, but I have not found anything (SyncToys is not an option), do you have anything to offer me?

Requirements:

• works as a service
• network shared path synchronization (i.e. \\myhost\myfolder )

Answer 1

I would say using rsync with a task scheduler to accomplish what you want.

There are several rsync ports for Windows, you can check the following:

• Delta copy
• cwrsync

Answer 2

After a long search, I found SuperFlexible . Maybe this answer is not expensive.
