Question Copy Files Incremental Copy Problem

Hi, I am trying to use the 'Copy Files' action with the 'Incremental Copy' option. The source and destination folders are on different servers, and both contain about 6000 files. The files should be identical, with the exact same size and timestamp.

I wanted to test and make sure both folders contained the exact same files, so, I ran the copy with 'Do not copy, only display files and folders that would be copied or deleted' checked. I ran the copy 5 times a different file list was returned as being 'Different'.

I checked the files on the two servers and they were the exact same size with the exact same timestamp.

My questions are:

What criteria does 'Copy Files' look at to determine if the files are 'Different'?

How did I get a different file list each time I ran 'Copy Files' even though nothing had changed in either directory?

Why would a file show up as different even though it has the same size and timestamp in both locations?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

Thanks,
Barry
