Hello Folks.

In the home here we have five windows PC's running various editions of XP and Vista. As a backup solution, we have a file server with ample space for backups to be made too. Some of the users are not very competent at remembering to back their files up. I'd like to run a script on shutdown of a machine to fetch a file from the local web server:

http://zuul/{machine-name}.list

The file contains a list of directories for that machine to copy over to a mounted network share.

Is this possible to do and are there any pointers or scripts you could me at to getting this working?

Many thanks,

Scott.
