[Casper] synchronizing share points

99% of our packages are .dmg files.  The problem is, I find out now,
that it wasn't copying my shell script out to the shares and the policy
was erroring out due to the script not being found on the share.

I manually copied the script out to the shares, but I was hoping this
would just sync

Hi Thomas!

Would these happen to be just the .pkg or .mpkg packages (not .dmg
packages)?

I've found that if I set Casper Admin's preferences for Syncing to use
"File
Size" rather than "Modification Date" this problem goes away. I haven't
seen
this problem in a long while since doing that but I think in our case
antivirus software was scanning the packages and causing modification
dates
to change.

Hope this helps!
