    I'm looking for advice for a reliable synchronization tool. Basically, I have a few directories that I'd like to do a 1-way publishing of from my desktop to laptop.

    I have just started to use SmartSync Pro (www.smsync.com), a product that I ran across after reading a review on it in the Wall Street Journal. It works great, but I am not sure if it is the ideal solution.

    Suggestions? What do you like in SmartSync Pro and similar programs? What don't you like?

    I've never found a good application for this. I use Briefacse though, works reasonably well for my needs.
