Just for clarification sake....
It is not a logon script but a batch file sitting behind an icon on desktop. Also it is the process of copying files on the users local machine to a network directory on a file server for backup purposes. The user is dial up only and I thought the zipping of the files might be a quicker transmission. But as pointed out the overhead of first locating files (script) - then zipping - then unzippingon the server (more script) does not appear to be any quicker or save and bandwidth at all....
Does anyone have any suggestions for a faster delivery? Sorry for any confusion.
