I support a webfarm with 10 servers. When a develeper makes a change to a file it needs to be deplyed to all 10 servers. Right now I just copy the file to all 10 servers but I am looking for a quciker way to do it. Is anyone aware of a tool or a program designed for this particular purpose? I have done some searching on the web but I am unable to find anything and I find it hard to believe no one else has had the same thoughts I have had. Any help is much appreciated!!

I'm sure there may be some software to do this (this one may work, but does not specify if it will backup to multiple locations).
However, you could probably just as easily create a batch file to do what you want. Create the same folder structure on you computer as exists on the servers. Then create a batch file to copy any files in the specified folders on your machine to the same folders on the servers. Then just set the batch file to run every x minutes with scheduled tasks.
