I wasn't going to just start installing software. Was curious to that people where using to research and maybe install. I Google alot but I miss out on some stuff because I don't really talk to many people. I found out about Ekahau from a vendor doing a wireless servery. And has been great for what I need. Just kind of looking for new blood or see if there is anything good out. I heard someone say there was a nicer program then putty to remote cisco, citrix and linux but I forget. Thats all.

So I have a new laptop and I want to start the process of installing new software. What do you guys use? I have: Putty nmap wireshark inssider ultra vnc Ekahau notepad++ realtime backup only think I can think of now. Any recommendations?

Thanks for the help. Ill give it a try.

Ok, so it sounds like rsync my be my best option. Is there an easy app I can install to push out these changes? I have tried cygwin in the past but every time I set it up I end up having to redo the computer for one reason or another. My Idea was on my work computer to do initial upload of my files and directories and then every day do an update so that I have the same docs at home to work with instead of actual taking my laptop home. Then Update in the morning if i did changes that night. Why I was thinking of ftp. Is WinSCP maybe my good choice?

Hi all. I have a dumb question. Does anyone use an go ftp program that does fire synchronization? I have FlashFXP but it does not have that option. Just sync browsing just like filezilla. I have been using winscp but would like something with better graphs of how much is being downloaded and how fast download is. But I am also a little skeptical about it still that is actual will sync all data. I have looked at always sync but it would like me to pay because I have to much to data to keep updated and wanted to verify there was nothing better out that I could buy. Hes is what I have going on. I have 2 laptops my work and personal. I want to back up all data to my brand new and shine WD EX2. I am a little upset that sftp does not work right but thats just and issue I have to deal with. I didnt have the money to buy a synology system and drives. But next time I will. Any who.... I want to backup basicly one big directory on each machine. These directories are up to 200 GBs. I have my VMs my music movies pic etc. but want to Sync them with the WD. I may update some of the files with the other laptop but I will up date from either the main machine or the WD so need it to sync. Next project will be to find a good backup solution for the WD like cobain or something. I seen that the Hostage file virus is a pain and dont want to lose that data. Any thoughts or opinions would be appreciated. I have been googling my butt off for the last few weeks and would like to hear what any real people have to say.
