Good afternoon,

I would like to create a batch file so that i can back up a folder from one server to another server. Ex: server 1 (c:\docs\test) to server 2 (93.120.139.35).

Thank you,

Mitsu2008 :)

Can you map server 2 to a drive letter?

If at first you don't succeed, you're about average.

I don't have a server, but what is it doing? or not doing?

It is not copying the directory over to the backup server. So i was woundering if any one has accomplished it by a batch or a script file which would accomplish the same thing.

Thank you,

map your backup server to a drive letter on the source server then do a xcopy

Gee, I wish I'd thought of that.
