Here's how I do it... - Open a writable Samba share on the FreeBSD box. - Map the drive from Windows and ensure the Win-user can write to it. - Schedule Robocopy (Res. Kit utility) to sync the Samba share from publications. Should do it. Robocoy script should be something like: robocopy.exe C:\publications J:\sambashare /mir >> C:\robocopy.log where C:\ is your local source directory that you are syncing from and J: is your mapped Samba share on the FreeBSD box.
