DHCPLog Backup Utility
This program was designed on Windows NT 4.0 SP 4 running the Microsoft DHCP service. It requires default locations of backup files and must be added to the Scheduler service (via the AT command) to start it. It also contains a batch script that will automatically copy the backed up files to another server (specified in the script) at a scheduled time using the AT command line program. This requires the Scheduler service to be running also. This script also holds the backups locally until the complete transfer over the network completes properly... This prevents lost data over unreliable links. The backups are created in the DHCPLog install directory under the folder Backup. The filenames are created by date in hyphenated format with a file extension indicating the day of the week (dd-mm-yy.day) I wrote this program because it was mandated by the State that we keep logs to track workstation use incase of Internet misconduct (email of a death threat, use of a stolen credit card number, etc...) This is currently in production use, but I plan to add functionality to the .INI file for custom directories and selecting a remote server, as well as integrating the batch script into the code... I may also include ftp or other transfer options. Please email me with success or failure stories, and any features you may want to see added at fremont_nb@noeca.net.
