This looks a little complicated to get installed.  Can you point me to a download site?

This sounds very interesting.  Free is good, most of the time…

Unison does a wonderful bidirectional sync and runs inside ssh (secure shell) and is free and runs on all platorms.  You could have it run as a cron job from a script that checked via ping if the system to sync with is present.

	I’m trying to come up with a file sync solution over a https connection to a file server on our network.  

	 

	I have several laptops that have not been joined to the domain.  These machines need to work on documents offline.  When they are connected to the Internet, I would like them to “auto-sync” documents to a file share on our network.  I’d like to do this securely and I want to leave keep these computers off of the domain for security and ease of use reasons.  Any thoughts or experiences?  

	 

	Thanks,
