I need to create a batch job that copies selected extensions/folders
from the local C: Drive to a network folder. I have created the
relevant DOS Network boot disk which maps the correct network drives.
What I have an issue with is the copy process. I need to ensure the
copy process works across NT4, Windows 2000 and XP workstations. I
need to be able to copy the following:

Favorites
*.do?
*.xl?
*.mdb
*.dic
*.pst

Can anyone give me some code that will do this. We need to backup 500
PC's before we redeploy a new SOE. Users copy data in different
folders so the code needs to basically search the entire C: Drive and
copy data and folder structures to a network folder

Thanks
Anthony

Same answer as in ambnt. Please don't multipost, crosspost if neccessary.

If I understand you right, the batch should work from a "dos" boot disk.
How do you gain access to ntfs-drives on the workstations?
Shall the folder structure of found files be preserved?
What about lfn's, current rights for files etc.

There are details missing or your approach needs revision.
