If security is of no concern, i.e. workstation to Samba server backup in a LAN, you might consider using tools like "xxcopy". See http://www.xxcopy.com. If your users permanently map a Samba network share to say "G:" the freeware version works just fine.
Example batch file for xxcopy: ------------------------------- @echo off xxcopy /ec E:\user\data1\ G:\temp\data1\ /clone /YY /ong:\backuplog.txt /PB xxcopy /ce E:\user\data2\ G:\temp\data2\ /clone /YY /oag:\backuplog.txt /PB xxcopy uses a lot (!) of command line parameters, which are fairly well documented: http://www.xxcopy.com/xxcopy01.htm Good luck, Uli -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
