builtin options for synchronizing a folder between 6 or so servers?

[Guest James]

are there any builtin options to accomplish this with A. Windows Server 2003

and B. Windows Server 2008?

 

Looking to have one central repository of image files (.wim's) and other

files such as ISO's be maintained at one site on a file share and have the

file share be replicated/synchronized to about 6 other sites. What options

are already available within the OS? (FRS?) Binary deltas supported?

 

if none already builtin does anyone have any good recommendations for a

third party package? The files I need replicated/synchronized are mostly

large files from 600MB - 8GB in size.
