Author Can someone write some software for me

I am looking for someone to write some software that will allow me to backup
from my local PC to a specified remote ftp server folder. After the initial
backup only incremental backups will be taken, whenever a file changes, or
at a predetermined time of day or on system shutdown.

I have found some excellent backup utilities but none that fit the bill
perfectly.

I have a number of clients who will be using the application to backup to my
ftp server, so its important that the application does not contain hard
coded remote access information. Good opportunity for a business
colaboration here.

If anyone has any suggestions please post here - or if you need
clarification of any of these points.

Are you sure PicoBackup doesn't fit the bill? I'm using it to exactly what
you describe.

http://www.picobackup.com/

However, if you do want a custom solution developed contact me (mitch @
ksoftware.net) and we can discuss it!

Absolutely marvoulous - if only I could get that customised with my Project
Desk2Web logo and hard code the ftp information into it then it would be
perfect!!

Thanks for pointing it out to me

Thats exactly what I did, and I believe he's going to see what they can do
for me - fingers crossed!

Thanks once again for pointing this one out to me.
