Are the Laptops Win 2K or above?
If so then there is file synch built right into Win2k and above.
This is what we do when the user logs in and off the network.

        Does anyone know of software that can synchronise files from a
laptop to a file server? 

        We have customers that use Citrix while at the office, but also
need the flexibility of working offline and having data saved on their
laptops. 

        We are currently using an ftp utility to move files between
customer sites and our network.

        I have had a look at Secure Access Manger, and that can
synchronise mail to the fat client, but cannot sync files. 

        If I enable client mapped drives it will increase our risk of
viruses on the network.

        I have also had a look at RDPFTP, but it does not work with ICA.

         

        Any suggestions would be appreciated
