Hi

What's the best way to backup data over a network with minimal human
intervention?
Currently, I use a VB Script with FileSystemObject's CopyFolder method to copy a
folder (and it's sub-folders) to a shared directory.

There seem to be some permission related problems with this method....

Does anyone know of another VB command or even a DOS command that can easily
copy a folder and it's contents to a network location?

Standard DOS copy commands have the same problem....

Any ideas?


TIA

XCOPY will copy and entire directory to another location but why not just
map a drive to share and make that drive a part of the backup:

Will XP annoy me with messages if the source of the mapped drive isn't
available? (i.e. I'm not on the network)
