I need some software for a client that will schedule daily FTP backups from their office to one of my servers. What is the best application to use? Shareware is preferable...

If they're on 'Doze you can set it all up using what you have. Create a batch file that uses ftp with a script and do an mput command. It'll take y/n/q for yes/no/quit quite happily in the script and then schedule it with the AT scheduler or create a scheduled task.

Job's a good un yes

save2ftp used to have a free app which would backup periodically to an ftp site & send email verifications etc. I had a quick look on their site, but can't find the free version at the moment.

If you've got UNIX or Linux boxes, rsync is the mutt's for remote backup.
