What about setting up a batch file in the task scheduler?
(Make sure the network shares are mounted as network drives, and that it wont run while the PC is in use.) Code:
@echo off xcopy c:\path\to\important\shit\*.* x:\path\to\network\backup\*.* /s /e /c /f /h /y echo done! exit Jam it back in, in the dark.

Yeah, I don't have access to a windows box at the moment, so can't give you step by step directions, but the windows xp task scheduler isn't hard at all to figure out.
The DOS naming wont be an issue, it just means if you run xcopy in a pure dos environment (aka not the windows xp command prompt.) that the names will be shortened to the dos 8.3 specs. As for the /d switch, I'm sure there is some way to use it, but I would have to experiment and as I said I don't have access to a windows system at the moment. There's nowhere I can't reach. |
