Is there any way to mirror the "My Documents" folder on a
server drive? I need to keep a backup copy of My
Documents on the server but do not want to have to open
a .bkf file. I have looked at some third party software
but would prefer not to spend the money if I don't have
to.

Thanks for the help,

matt
 
I have tried 4-5 of the software mirroring programs, most
took up too much resources and had lot's of errors and
lock up's, I did finally bought and it ended up being the
worst.

You could use Xcopy with a batch file.

Here is one that someone posted in here.

Not Mine :::::::::::::::::::::

My Example: (All in one batch file)

xcopy /D:08-12-03 /v /y "C:\Docume~1
\mark\mydocu~1" "D:\Not copied to CD\Docs"
xcopy /D:08-12-03 /v /y "C:\Documents and
settings\mark\my documents\my pictures" "D:\Not copied to
CD\pics"
xcopy /D:08-12-03 /v /y "C:\Docume~1\mark\mydocu~1\my
music" "D:\Not copied to CD\music"
xcopy /D:08-12-03 /v /y "C:\Documents and Settings\All
Users\Documents\private" "D:\Not copied to CD\private"

/ v verifies each new file
/ y suppresses confirmation to overwrite existing files
/ D:month-day-year Only copies files modified on or after
set date.
