A simple way is :-
copy:
aclass::
/<path>/file.${host} server=<cfserver>
Have cfagent (v2) run as often as you want. You can always wrap
certain things in Minxx if you want to restrict certain actions to
certain times in the hour.
Not much else to it really, apart from some RTMFing for more details
:-)
Sincerely,
