Hello,
I would like to know if it is possible to REALLY clone a local folder to a remote one.
Explanation:
I know it's possible to send (or update) files on a remote, based on a local folder.
But what if I delete local files on the local side?
FZ won't suppress them on the remote.
So they will remain unchanged on the remote unless I remove them manually.
My problem is that my local reference folder is managed with tools so it's not obvious and it's time consuming to do it manually.
How can I set/tune FZ so it keeps the remote folder (and subfolders) identical to the reference (local folder and sub folders) ?
and especially, in a way that it removes files and folders in the remote that are no longer on the local?
Thank in advance.

Re: Really cloning a folder
You can't. Automatic synchronization is not implemented. There is a half-automatic sync feature (directory comparison) that will show your what's different or missing. However, the actual transfers and delete actions need to be done manually.
For your special task, you might better use special backup/sync software which can sync over FTP.

Hello,
I found a better answer:
for a small fee, I got Filezilla Pro, which does the job.
It's called "file synchronization" and it fits perfectly my need.
Best regards
