Replicating text files using web services

Can I replace replication of text files over ftp with a web service?  I'd
like to elminate as much labor as possible, having the text files transfer
as soon as new ones are deposited in a folder.  Just need to know it's the
right path to pursue.

Hi,
As soon as you receive files in directory "A", you want to transfer
them to directory "B"? right?
If this is the case, I would suggest to build a Windows Service rather
than Web service.

Web Services are not right solution for this kind of tasks until you
have a special requirment.

Cheers,
Amer

Thanks very much.  If I may, we're going to have to use this all over the
world, not on a LAN, if that qualifies as a special requirement.
Nevertheless, I'll see if I can make it work with a web service if there's
really a lot of downside to the web service.
