QUESTION POSED ON: 08 May 2006
I need to synchronize files between two servers in different locations. Both of them have Win2003 SP1 and they are in the same forest, but on different domains. How can I do this? I tried DFS, but it's not working.

Probably the best tool for this is Secure Copy from ScriptLogic. You can also use the synchronization tools in the File Server Migration Toolkit, a free download from the Microsoft Web site.
