set up a watch folder or rsync

[robertw]

hi all,

i have a folder on my linux server and i have created a new folder on the same linux server so its like this -

old folder - /mnt/ceta_invoices_2

new folder - /mnt/ceta_invoices_3

i want to be able to watch anything new that goes in " /mnt/ceta_invoices_2" to go straight away ie copy to "/mnt/ceta_invoices_3"

is it best to set up an rsync on a crontab for this or use the inotifywait command?

many thanks,

rob
