Backup problem

Hello!
We have Windows Server 2003 running in our small office. I'd like to make the backup to another computer, over our LAN. There are about 2000 files in the server (about 5 GB). I think the best solution for us is the incremental backup. I tried it, but with no luck.
If I ran the backup process first time, the result was good (the backup file was in another computer's hdd) . If I ran the backup next time, all those files are backuped, which are changed after the last backup.  But now the big file with the first backup was gone!!!! In the backup wizard I choosed "Append this backup to the existing backups". I don't understand, what's wrong. Please help me!

Best Regards,

I think the file renaming is too complicated system for us.
I made some more tests with the incremental backup. If there is only 20 files (500 kB) in the folder I backup, the system works well! It means, after the many incremental backups, the old files are also there in the "big" file and I can recover those.  
Great so does that me your ok?
