batch file for backup
I have an external drive that I would like to make a copy of on a regular basis. I have shared the external drive and want to create a batch file on another computer to make a backukp.
Is it possible to tell the batch file to backup from an IP address and not give it a computer name?
At the moment one of my other batch files looks like below. I have tried replacing the name with the ip address but nothing.
rem set backu location
set dest=l:\typing
rem set source to backup
set source=\\exchts\d\typing
thanks

you can also use a command "Robocopy" which will copy the updated data and will reduce the time to copy also.
