Up until now I have been able to maintain all of our distribution points on OS X servers. This bas enabled me to use rsync to keep all of my distribution points in sync. I am now facing bringing on a Windows server as a distribution point. Other than manual replication, what means have you guys used to keep these distro points in sync. I am currently looking in to various ports of rsync onto windows as well as robocopy, but haven't found anything that I have been impressed with yet.
Thanks for any feedback.

I have a Mac mini server that's hosting several test virtual servers for me that I use as my "sync server" for lack of a better description. I'm running Synchronize Pro X on it with a few backup scripts to keep our distribution points in sync. Our main DP is an SMB share so I use SP to keep our secondary DP, an AFP share, in sync. So far no problems.
