File Copy Applications

We are setting up a new file structure on our servers. Does anyone have an application they have used to copy files from one location to another?
Thanks!

A batch file: script?

pushd .\repository

robocopy /mir ..\updates .

svn commit

popd

for %%C in (comp1, comp2) do {

robocopy /mir .\updates \\%%C\c$

}

robocopy, or "Robust File Copy", is a command-line directory replication command. It was available as part of the Windows Resource Kit, and introduced as a standard feature of Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008.

I found that on this link:

Robocopy gui is a good tool to copy files to new location with security permission

OR you can try emcopy (a command line tool to copy with security permission)

Please let me know if you need emcopy.exe and syntax to copy

you can also use wget. You require ftp for it though.

You could also use RichCopy, which is GUI based and faster than Robocopy.

Another simple but fast one is FastCopy
