Standardization of procedure. Files go to 3 local machines and 1 on other side of continent. Netbios may work fine, yet to use it.
Ftp can have 1 routine for auto backups to any box, local or remote. Other OS may use easily, same access point from hispeed
web, dialup or lan.
Open to improvement suggestions, though. Have a procedure of mini-netbios using files from I believe a cid install. In future
rsync transfer will likely be implemented.

Slip of the tongue. You are correct but when a file transfers 1 day in 20 seconds, next time in 15 minutes it feels like it!
So far issue appears to be software and may appear on another list in future.
