Backups question

Hi everybody,

Two how to types of issues for which I would like your opinions on how to resolve.

Question 1
On my Win98 box, I have a specific directory, we'll call it Mable for discussion purposes. I would like to implement an automated process which would essentially mirror the contents of the Mable directory from the Win98 box to my Win XP home box. The two boxes are currently networked and sharing a cable internet connection.

Is this possible?

Someone had suggested XXCOPY, however I am not familiar with the app. Any applications suggestion to resolve this issue?

Question 2
The user of the above listed Win98 box is currently doing some basic website html work. For discussion purposes, lets assume the website URL is http://www.myweb.com. I had earlier used Teleport Pro to create a local replica of the website, however, I was uncertain as to the best way to automate this process. Is it possible to automate a process to backup the website?

Ideally, for both of these issues, I would like to establish processes which would remove the "human" factor from the process. The overall goal of both of these questions is too allow me to perform backups on these processes for which I currently do not have a plan.

Thank you
