[Thinkpad] Re: Network question

Hello,

I have been using KarenWare's Power Tool Replicator to synchronize
file sets. The program is simple to use and appears to work well.

Replicator is free for personal, non-commercial use, and both the
program and source code can be downloaded from the author's web
site at <http://www.karenware.com/powertools/ptreplicator.asp>.

No connection other than being a happy user.

Regards,

Aryeh Goretsky
