Need backup solution

I have a 120Gb USB external HD, Simpledrive. I would like to schedule
nightly backups to it, across a local network, with a specified backup
set of folders, files, and exclusions. I want to backup the files and
folders as-is, not compressed into a backup volume, and update only
changed files on subsequent backups. The backup will include system
folders, such as "Documents and Settings", which can't be copied
manually when in use. Any suggestions?
thanks,
Sean

This freeware --- contribution won't be amiss --- Replicator, by Karen
Kenworthy has the all functions you requested, and more. I use the
programme everyday.

For it to run, be sure to download (same site), theVisual Basic Runtime
version 6 too, if you don't have it already. Also, don't skip the
development log; you'll be gently led into the use of the programme to its
full potential.
