I call NT backup from a scheduled batch file that runs each night, which in turn creates a log file to showing the backup contents and verification details.

How can I create a log file each night that uses the date/time as its filename?

rogp, someone here created a batchfile for me to do a similar thing
basically i had a logfile, which i rename(with datestamp)and move to a logs folder, at 00.01 each morning.

is that what you are after?

set d1=%date%
set dd=%d1:~4,2%_
set mm=%d1:~7,2%_
set yy=%d1:~12,2%
set fd=%dd%%mm%%yy%.log
move c:\websec~1.log c:\logs\%fd%

{replace c:\websec~1.log to you logfile name)
remember to use the 8.3 filename format

save this as a batchfile and let win2k schedule it
