Hi.
You might want to look into 'rsync'.
For example:
Code:
rsync -vat /home/alan/mp3/ /mnt/iHP/
(make sure the trailing / is present in both paths) will copy anything in /home/alan/mp3/ to /mnt/iHP/ which isn't already there. Do the command with the arguments reversed as well, and you should end up will all the files from both directories, in both directories. If that made any sense at all.
