    Will SyncToy 2.0 run on a Server2003 R2 platform. 

    I don't see it as one of the supported operating sytems. ( I hope this does not answer my own question) 

    But this is the perfect solution to replace a batch procedure running xcopy for backups.

    It likely will work, although like you say, since it is not a tested or supported environement, we can not guarantee that there will not be issues. 

     

    If you were to run SyncToy on a supported platform and connect it to your Server2003 machine through a shared network this should work.

    Is there any reason why you have not tested it for 2003?
    I need to keep directories on two win2003 servers in sync on a daily basis and SyncToy seems to be a good solution - if it works?
