Sync folder

[irsprint]

I m lookign for some software free or paid to have a sync folder for when you take your laptop home then for it to sync to network when the laptop is connected at work?

Let me google that for you

 

Windows' Briefcase, Offline Files, Deltacopy...*

 

*choose one as appropriate

Microsoft's sync toy and that will msi deploy as well iirc and is free

Alwaysync is good - it's free up until you hit certain file limits (in terms of size and number of files).

 

You could script it partially - have it check for a network drive at login and sync from a laptop hard drive folder.

 

When they logoff, have it sync back toward the laptop folder.

 

It's quick and dirty but may do exactly what you want

What about DropBox: Dropbox - Home - Secure backup, sync and sharing made easy.

Thanks for the suggestion for Dropbox - definitely a good one for me, since I use Ubuntu on my laptop and XP on my desktop/work comps. Integrates well with the OS in every case - no need to fire up the browser.

 

Now, if they can add Windows Mobile support, we'll be singing..
