Recommend automatic backup software

I purchased a Maxtor external drive that I would like to use on a network with five PCs. But the backup software that is included with it does not included network support, even though I can share the drive and map it as a drive on each of the PCs on the network.

Can anyone recommend reliable automatic backup software for this situation?

Windows XP Pro

SyncBack Freeware.

Thanks Skip, that looks like just what I need.

Not that it’s rocket science, but here is a nice, little how-to with tips and whatnot.

What’s the matter with Windows’ own Backup program (Start/Programs/Accessories/System Tools/Backup)and Task Scheduler? I’ve been using it every day for years with no problems and no expense.

I don’t backup across a network, but Backup supports it.

I’m currently using Cobain Backup to backup my files to a local drive and offsite. It’s free and seems to be doing exactly what I need, secure FTP and encrypted files.
