Hi all,

Im sitting infront of this problem since yesterday, and just dont know what to do. I have written a vbscript and want it to run every morning at 6:30am.

The script DOES work, Ive tryed it more than enougth. Heres what I tryed to schedule the task:

1.: Over the gui task scheduler in the control panel. This works, but it doesnt work when no one is logged on the server
2.: same as 1st one, but to call a batch file that executes the script. doesnt work either
3. Using the AT command. I was able to schedule a task on my winxp workstation using that command, but on the server, nothing happens, not even when Im logged in on the machine. The event log doesnt contain any errors aswell

Supposently number 3 is supposed to work since it schedules stuff using the system account, but it doesnt run at all...


I dont know what to do anymore, so please help me

this might come in handy smile.gif it's using the windows task scheduler. It shows how to set it up so it runs without anyone logged in.

I just did a quick read over it, you probably mean this part right?

Important: If you want your task to run even if no user is logged in, you must enter a user name and password in the "Run As" box.


I did that aswell and it didnt work neither
