define deep?
could use offline folders etc
that works quite well on windows 2000 and XP pro.

The 2 I am looking at atm are ether. synchronize it! or xstarter. I realy did not give enogh info sorry

.

Spose I am just asking what people use. to sync three PC's, my documents. maybe the odd folder ie c:\downloads\, favorites etc etc.

So somthing like this

PC one has all the main info, pc 2 and 3 sync with it, looking at the folders I have set on pc1 and updating as needed. but also if something pops onto pc 3 then pc 1 and 2 will update.

Syncback (http://www.2brightsparks.com/syncback/syncback-hub.html) is also worth a go - quite similar to MS synctoy but with a few more complex options.

Another vote for Syncback. I use it to synchronise a backup copy of everything important onto external hard drives and across my network to my other PCs.

Synctoy or Robocopy (commandline based)
