I'm making "the switch". I'm moving from Vista to Mac. I'm going through the normal growing pains of learning the differences in the two (backspace anyone :) ).

So the question... on Vista I could mount a drive from a Windows share a designate it so that the contents of that folder were cached on my local drive. Should I change that folders contents while not connected they would sync back up once connected. This was done automatically when I connected.

Is there any feature like this in Mac OS X or any software that acts that way? I'm looking at various 3rd party tools that sync folders but it appears most require human interaction or does it based on a timer. I was hoping there was a function like this built in but haven't come across it yet.

Any pointers would be helpful - and appreciated.
