You can use the 'at' command to schedule a backup batch job to run AT a specific time. You can get all the information you need by selecting START->HELP and then typing 'at' in the INDEX. To enable this, you will have to start the 'SCHEDULE' service, too. Unfortunately, the 'at' command doesn't give as much flexibility as Unix's 'cron', but there are free products on the web that will let you do cron on NT.

Hope that helps,
