We upgraded a win2000 server to Win2003. We have one user who is allowed to connect to the machine and run a scheduled task remotely. However, we have not been able to set this up.

Used to be she would type //servename and up would be a window with any shares, printers, and sched tasks folder. Now, it only lists the shares with 2003. Is there a setting that enables this printer and scheduled task viewing?

Thanks for any insight!
 
We'll be doing a similar move in the coming weeks, and this is something we use.
Most often however, I use the 'AT' command.
I may have a file on the remote sever i want to run at a specific time (6:30 pm).
I will run this at the command line from my workstation:
AT \\server 18:30 c:\folder\command.exe
Basicall this schdules a job.
Your user may be able to a similar thing if they are in the proper group with rights.
Not sure how to get the scheduled jobs to reappear though.
Let me know if this helps.
 
Thanks Poli, I will give it a try!
