Thanks for the confirmation, yes other machines are XP.
As I seem to be having problems with robocopy somehow not being able to delete extra files on my nas when mirroring, do you know of any other back up program that maybe able to do the job with out me having to know too much, and yet also get rid of the recycler and system volume information at the same time?
This question was from quite a while ago, but maybe someone else is looking for the same solution. I recently deployed GoodSync and I am very, very happy with that tool. It handles syncs left-right/right left and backups left-right/right left beautifully, and fast. The UI is very comprehensive (there's even an Amazon S3 link, next to Local, LocalNet SMB, FTP, WebDAV, SFTP and Win Mobile links) and you can include and exclude anything you want, either through different tasks, or through browsing in the same task.
Automation (attended and unattended) is simple and works flawless.
Hope this helps.
