Hi
Newbie here,
I have written a script to backup a "work" folder from my Mac which averages
3Gb to a Mac volume on a Windows NT Raid every night.
All works fine until I need to copy more than 1.97Gb
Windows NT dose not allow anything more than 1.97Gb to be copied to a Mac
Volume - I have been told!
So the question is how can I tell my script to drip feed one folder at a
time from within my "work" folder to the Raid meaning smaller files rather
than one large lump at once? Also how can I replace each daily backup with
the next weeks daily backup?
tell application "Finder"
(mount volume "volume name" on server "server name" in AppleTalk zone
"zone name") ,
make new folder at folder "Backup" of disk "Mac Backups" with
properties {name:(date string of (current date))}
copy items of folder "Work" of startup disk ,
to folder {name:(date string of (current date))} of folder "Backup"
of disk "Mac Backups"
display dialog "backup completed successfully" with icon 1
end tell
Any advice much appreciated
John
