Thanks Milutin, Your link seems to link through to http://www.archivesat.com/post1458236.htm : a single post from the rsync user list. As I understand it (via http://tinyurl.com/mcy2m as I have no prior knowledge of the tool), WSC is a backup tool used by Windows Server 2003 - I cannot readily see how that will be of use in my situation. Could you clarify ? Note: I am not having difficulty *reading* locked files, but *writing* locked files. Thanks again, Mike.
