I havn't used this before, but I could have sworn that windows has this ability built-in.

File Replication Service... I'd imagine that you just download their management utility and it should be straight forward.

Subject: [MSUNAG] synchronizing over network shares
Hello
I'm looking for something similar to rsync to keep a synced copy of
files across a windows network, meaning that every night I'd synchronize
copies of what's on one server on a different server (Windows Server
2003). Rsync (for windows) just hangs for a very long time and doesn't
do anything, so has anyone come across a utility which acts similarly
and would run alright nightly as a scheduled task? I realize I could
probably use xcopy or something similar, but I'd prefer a rsync type
utility.
