How to synchronize two FTP servers


How to synchronize two FTP servers Dwayne

iis ftp:
Is there a way using IIS 6 to set up two separate machines and have them
synchronize folders? What we would like to do is to set up an FTP server
here in the U.S. so our local users can add files and also set up another
FTP server in China so they can upload files and then be able to have them
synchronize at set times. The reason for this is the transmission problem
between the U.S. and China, then we can have them synchronize while neither
of our plants are working. I have searched but didn't find any info. Any
help will be greatly appreciated.

A simple way is you create two folders in each ftp site
/china and /usa
write a batch file and schedule it. to run auto ftp'ing file
from china server '/china/' to usa server 'china', then do the other way
around for '/usa/' folder.

a better way is to look for third party sync software that allow you to do
it. google the net.
