I'm having trouble finding some way to backup files from my ubuntu server to my windows 7 client. This is over the internet so I can't use robocopy or similar.

Does anyone know about a program or script that copy folder from my ubuntu (over ftps, sftp or something) server to my windows 7 client?

Robocopy can copy over the internet given a hardware server, but I'll suggest alternatives. – Tom Wijsman Jan 30 '11 at 0:25

Windows supports FTP Batch Scripts or you count use WinSCP in a command line way.

The trouble with backing up to a Windows machine is that the file system doesn't support some of the file naming conventions in Linux, which is something to be aware of. – Randolph West Jan 30 '11 at 3:11
I got it working using WinSCP. Thanks mate. – Marwelln Feb 1 '11 at 13:26
