I don’t usually need to keep files in sync I have an OS drive with my operating systems and 2 other drives for games and music and they are backed up on my network drive. But if you have everything in one folder then this application does sound nice.

Windows Commander has a pretty good synchronization tool. [a.k.a. Total Commander.]

I have some fun with Apples MobileME. It helps me a good deal to keep my Macs and Windows Machines in line.

Hello,

I have had very good experiences using 2BrightSparks’ SyncBackSE to keep my notebook and desktop computers in sync with each other.

Well it looks like a really cool app i havent gotten to try it out…it would be nice if there was a DEB installation file because even some debian-based linux users dont know to compile from the source or convert RPMs and i am lazy sometimes other then that i will probably try it to night and i might post another comment

I found that SK was a bit too much work for what it’s really needed for, if that makes sense?

I found that using FolderShare (www.foldershare.com), was even better than this. Not only can you sync folders on a network, but across the web, or with friends that you allow into the folders to be sync’d.

Few other ones that were handy as well that I tried, iFolder & PowerFolder.

They too run on Mac/Linux/Win.

The only files that I have to worry about syncing are the files on my flash drive. Most of the time, I usually just do it manually. I might give Synkron a shot, though. Sounds interesting.

I used http://www.foldershare.com for a long time and for minor things still do. But I found http://www.sugarsync.com and love it. It is also a backup system that has a primary server that all computers sync to almost instantly. It’s still in beta though. I have all the same bookmarks on all of my 4 computers too.
