I need a program that will:
* connect to a network location, with a username and password other than that of the logged in Windows user
* copy (or, better, sync, but copy is good) all files from a list of locations to this network location.
* do this automatically, on a schedule, without requiring user intervention[1]
* work on Windows XP, without installing or configuring a pseudo-unix environment like Cygwin.
* be either free, or a relatively cheap one-time purchase for licenses. No on-going fees allowed.
* have a license that allows business/corporate use.
Anyone got a line on anything that meets these requirements? Windows Backup, the built-in software, actually does all of this EXCEPT reliably making the network connection. If the username and password of the logged-in user match the user/pass to connect to the share exactly, Windows will reliably make the connection. If not, it will most often send the current user's credentials, not the user/pass it's set up to send, and that means the entire backup fails.
[1]: If it can be programmed into a one-click icon, Windows Task Scheduler will do this for me. Still, all the configuration needs to be set up so that the single command is all that's necessary.
