I need to run a FTP synchronization software (using Windows Task Scheduler) to regularly sync my server and the web server. Could anyone recommend a software for it? I used to use WSFTP pro, but it only worked for 32 bit software.

Thanks.
 
Does it have to be FTP? Robocopy is perfect in these scenarios.

Plan for performance, and capacity takes care of itself. Plan for capacity, and suffer poor performance.
 
Thanks for the reply.

The web server is a remote server at the web hosting company. Will Robocopy work for that scenario? If it does, I think I have to make the web server directory as a mapped drive on my local server, right?
 
Robocopy won't work if it's possible you are traversing firewalls in order to get to your hosting site/server (as your hosting site may not allow MS service ports to be opened from the internet). Is the server at the site a Windows host as well?
 
I got the recommendation of allwaysync, which does offer the 64-bit edition. I am going to try this out.
