Liam,

rsync is your friend.

I have never done it but here is a page explaining how to install rsync
on windows. 

http://optics.ph.unimelb.edu.au/help/rsync/rsync_pc1.html

Based on your recent post inquiring about print server I see you've got
a Linux box set up. Why not use it to rsync. I'll bet your CD burner is
on the Windows box, but you can always transfer the isos over to it
later. rsync is already to go on your linux box and it is quite easy to
work with.
