remote file copy without ftp
Hi -
I have some data that I need to update daily on an Internet server outside of our firewall from data on an intranet server. The catch is that there is no FTP service on the server -- This is beyond my control, I can't install ftp. The server does have IIS 6.0 and .net 2.0 and 1.1. I'm able to use remote desktop to copy the files manually, but I'm looking for an automated method that can run in the middle of the night.
I tried creating a batch file that would temporarily map a directory to the intranet server from the intranet server and copy the files. But for some reason, this doesn't seem to run when I'm not logged on...
Any other ideas at all would be greatly appreciated!

Re: remote file copy without ftp
If you can't install an FTP server on the target, can you install a vb app that you created on it?
Re: remote file copy without ftp
Absolutely. I'm writing in asp.net, and I have some vbscript apps that I use on the server as well. Do you have any hints for code I could write?
--thanks for your response
Re: remote file copy without ftp
I would try asking again in the .NET forum.
If this were VB6 I could help, but I don't know .NET. :(
