Thank you, i'll look into Syncthing and Syncany(i think the docs says there is a windows version), I'll also try to see if cobian backup will work if I set up a Samba file server on the linux machine

@notverypunny I am hoping that I can use "cobian backup" to send files to the linux machine as well, but there isn't much information on the internet about how to do it. For some directories it will be realtime,for others it will be scheduled.

I am also looking for a free/open source application

What in your opinion is the best way to sync files between a windows and a linux operating systems on two separate machines?

I would like to do a one way sync from the windows to the linux machine.

Right now the syncing tool that I am are using to sync files between all my windows machines is cobian backup. But i am not sure what is the best way to do the sync from windows to linux
