>They expect you to run batch files. Another thing is that we have to keep looking for the presence of a file and assume that the transfer went ok.

Have you thought of using RAS, VPN? These come with the OS's, and allow you to map a drive - then it is just a matter of verifying the file exists on the target machine.
