Backup Software.
Looking for some backup software that Meets the following Critiera

1) Will run on Windows Xp and Vista

2) Runs silently in the background

3) Backs up to a network Share (Or Client/Server type config would also be fine)

4) In the event of the Share/Server being Unavailable does not disturb the user but rather simply will "Retry later"

5) Supports encryption.

Anyone got any ideas?

Although you will need to pay for the Standard version for Encryption.

http://www.karenware.com/powertools/ptreplicator.asp is also free, but doesn't support encryption.

Re: Backup Software.
Dragon - sorry, not sure if this meets all your criteria, perhaps you could check.
I bought this (earlier version) a while ago and was happy with it.
Damn cheap for a powerful app.

Re: Backup Software.
I use Memeo Autobackup which came free with my Buffalo Linkstation. After some initial set up problems, which their forum helped with, I have this running on XP and vista . This offers realtime backup and backs up automatically to my NAS and also saves previous versions if you choose to set this up. Encryption is possible but I haven't tried that. There is a 30 day trial available here.
