So i am having this issue where every time I replicate my distribution points, there are several Winclone images that are replicated each time. This only happens with certain .winclone files. The images dont seem corrupt as they image correctly. My master distribution point is a windows smb share and the other distribution points are OSX smb shares.
Any help would be appreciated.
Matt

What's your replication method look like?

Okay. What happens if you change to a different comparison method? By default, Casper Admin uses file size to determine if files are the same. What if you change it to mod date or checksum?
I'm wondering if because you've got different OS on each end if they're calculating file sizes differently. That may be a hairbrained theory, but you could try the other comparisons anyway.

I am having this issue as well but it only occurs with the newly created Winclone Pro 3.4 images. I have checked permissions etc and they are the same as the old winclone images.
And I tried changing the comparison type and they still replicate repeatedly.
