The script runs on a machine called PrecisionM50 and copies from 2 other machines, Vostro and Thinkpad, onto the local drive of PrecisionM50.

The log file keeps a record so I know what happened. xcopy \\thinkpad\..\ \\precisionm50\backups\thinkpad /d /s /c /i /f /g /r /k /x /y /z >\\precisionm50\backuplog.txt xcopy \\vostro\..\ \\precisionm50\backups\vostro /d /s /c /i /f /g /r /k /x /y /z >>\\precisionm50\backuplog.txt xcopy \\precisionm50\backups \\precisionm50\india /d /s /c /i /f /g /r /k /x /y /z /j >>\\precisionm50\backuplog.txt -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
