Thanks, I think we'll look into using DFS to replicate these files back and 
forth.  I like your diff idea as well if synchronizing doesn't take.

Most of the configuration is in cfusion/lib/neo-*.xml files. Synchronizing the 
files from one server to the other is of course possible with something like 
robocopy and windows scheduler, but I'll give fair warning that this is sketchy 
at best, and we have never been able to reliably get this to work.

Best bet is to make changes to all the servers and have some sort of task that 
checks the diffs on the files to warning you of possible out-of-sync 
configurations.
