"Rsync is a tool for efficiently transferring files across a network."


Does a 'changed data only' synchronization.  It can use ssh, and it runs on NT.

I'm doing a backup of critical stuff to home three times a day. Granted
it's only about 2 gb, but it takes only ten minutes - and nobody on either
end notices any slowdown.
