AT Scheduler 'WinAT.exe'

[Guest Mike]

I want to run a scheduled task on a Windows 2003 server.

I want to run the task using the local System account therefore I need to

use AT as the Scheduled Tasks Wizard does not allow use of the local System

account.

I have used the WinAT.exe resource kit utility on NT4 and W2K servers but it

is not included in the Windows 2003 resource kit tools.

Is the 'WinAT.exe' utility approved on Windows Server 2003?

Why not use schtasks.exe? AFAIK it is included with

Win2003 server and it lets you schedule a task under

the System account.

I did not know about this.

I have scheduled my task under the system account.

Thanks.
