I'm a novice to .NET though I have good experience with VBScript and JScript.

I need to make a utility that I'd like to be web driven. The utility would be a backup utility.

I'm learning c# and from the initial research that I'm doing, that is going to be the language of choice for this solution.

I'd like the utility to look like that from Microsoft when you are updating or patching your OS.

Simple windows and I noticed the app is using aspx.

So my question is,
How do I create an application (considering security) that accesses the file system and backups files to a network source?

Truth told, I'm not really looking for scripts or the like, I'm really looking for topics to look up, best practices for web deployment, etc.

If anybody does have any snippets, that's fine too, but I try to develop my own solutions
