I've set up a web folder with the intention of performing a daily backup
(c.7Mb) of a single user's data file at a remote site. MS backup won't let
you save a backup to a web folder, and neither explorer nor "NET USE" typed
at the command line will let me map a drive to the folder if I prefix the
address with https://. I really don't want to open port 80.

Is there an easy way (I'm script averse!) of performing the backup locally,
then zipping it up and sending it to the Web folder, all on an automated
basis?

Tim
