WinAT

Sure. Write a little batch file to run ntbackup with the parameters you want, then use WinAT to scheule running the batch file.

For example

ntbackup backup /v /b /hc:on /t normal

does a normal backup, backs up the local registry, turns on compression, and verifies the operation.

Here's the syntax for ntbackup from the command prompt:

Syntax:

ntbackup operation path [/a][/v][/r]/d?"text"][/b][/hc:{on | off}] [/t?{option}][/l?"filename"][/e][/tape:{n}]

Parameters:

operation

Specifies the operation, backup or eject.

Each of the following parameters (except /tape) must be used only with the backup operation parameter.

path

Specifies one or more paths of the directories to be backed up.

/a

Causes backup sets to be added or appended after the last backup set on the tape. When /a is not specified, the program overwrites previous data. When more than one drive is specified but /a is not, the program overwrites the contents of the tape with the information from the first drive selected and then appends the backup sets for the remaining drives.

/v

Verifies the operation.

/r

Restricts access.

/d "text"

Specifies a description of the backup contents.

/b

Specifies that the local registry be backed up.

/hc:on or /hc:off

Specifies that hardware compression is on or off.

/t {option}

Specifies the backup type. Option can be one of the following:

normal copy
incremental differential
daily
/l "filename"Specifies the filename for the backup log.

/e

Specifies that the backup log include exceptions only.

/tape:{n}

Specifies the tape drive to which the files should be backed up. N is a number from 0 to 9 that corresponds to the number the drive was assigned when the tape drive was installed.
