Copying Files Across Domains

by gmorford . Updated 25 years, 6 months ago

I want to copy a bunch of files each night from an NT4 server to a Win95 client. The two computers are in different domains. I wanted to use the scheduler in Win 95 to run a batch file to do the copy. The problem is that when specifying an UNC path, the Win 95 machine looks in its own domain for the server … and of course, it isn’t there. I thought I saw somewhere that a domain name can be specified in a UNC path, but I don’t remember how.

Any help here? Or other simple ways to accomplish this?
