[W2003] Automatic connection + file downloading?

[Guest Gilles Ganault]

Hello

 

Currently, to download files from a Windows 2003 server running

Terminal Services, I need to log on and run a utility to download

files from my home directory to my client host.

 

I was wondering if some utility was available that could automate the

process:

1. Connect to the TS server

2. Zip files from my home directory, possibly using a .BAT file

3. Upload this zip file to an FTP server

4. Download the zip file from the FTP server

 

Thank you.

Why so difficult? Why not just map your home directory to the same

shared folder, both from your client and the TS?

Agreed. That was my first thought, also. Then the OP could write a batch

file or VB script to do the actions.
