are we talking about a lot of data ? You could use host based tools like emcopy/robocopy and run it from time to time to keep them close and then on the final day of cut-over run it one more time, re-create your shares and point them to the new file system.
can't think of anything, tools that offer continuous replication are typically loaded on the host itself and monitor local file system ..i can't think of anything that would monitor CIFS shares. Use robobopy on a Windows 2008 box and specify /MT:XX parameter ..very speedy performance.

Thanks for that D. looks like robocopy should be a last resort. Lots of data\records being updated ect. Any other third party tool with auto sync
features.
