lucamad Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 Hi, I've found a lot of 3d but not for my own... I must develop a software for my company that copy a folder over network (differential backup, xcopy like 'd be perfect) from a client to server. But there are some project limitations: 1. No shared folders can be used (on client and server); 2. Client users have restricted permissions (not admin rights); 3. No FTP. In this scenario, I would like to develop a "server controller backup" software with AutoIt...: - The server version (installed on server) asks each specified client for a backup; - The client version (installed on client) reply with the last backup date; - The server start backup if necessary. How can I start "talking" the server and the client software without FTP in my LAN? Socket? Port? And how do I send a folder (or file)? Thanks for your help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
water Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 You are really going to write your own backup software? Why? There are so many products available ready to use. The best I have ever used is TSM (IBM Tivoli Storage Manager). Backup needs to be fast, reliable, complete ... So nothing I would like to write on my own.
