Ronald,
log shipping is a standard method used for disaster
recovery boxes. However, you have standard so you'll need
to roll your own - ie the option to do it using the

resource kit there are scripts you can use. BTW I have a
comparison of log shipping and transactional replication
on www.replicationanswers.com which may be interesting
for you.
