Greetings all;
Now from being from the old school of computer programming what I
would do is simply write a batch command file that copies off the
appropriate directories/files either to another place on my machine or to
another machine on my workgroup. Once I feel that the batch file works
properly I would then schedule the batch file to run using the AT batch
scheduler which has been a part of Windows right from the very beginning.
You can tell I grew up in the DOS world... almost becoming a lost
art. Just an FYI, I have a similar job that runs to copy files off a LINUX
box to my personal laptop at 3:00 am (uses FTP... another standard offering
in Windows). Job has been running without a hitch for several months now.
I am sure there are third party solutions that will do the same
thing. Once a programmer always a programmer...
Good luck with it.

I have written on this subject several times. I have been using Iomega
Automatic Backup for years, but I understand there are other cheaper (free)
solutions. You want something that backs up in the background, either at
regular intervals or every time the file changes. You don't want to have to
rely on a button you push yourself, unless you are highly disciplined.

Subject: [Dx4win] Backups
Hi all,
We all know the importance of backing dada up, I use a USB stick to back
up DX4WIN for example. Does any one know of a utility that will
automatically back up date from various directories to another network
computer? I am thinking of save directory from DX4WIN plus dada
directories from other programs? (comps on XP)
