There are focussed applications that would synch Outlook tasks.
Microsoft wants to force you to get Exchange server that would do this
for you but many applications get rid of the need for Exchange
server ...

look on this list ... http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/sync.htm

or google : outlook task synch

FYI, this software would synch the tasks but might not synch the
Outlook<-->OneNote links.
