Scheduling Server Restarts 1

[vijmat]

I am trying to restart an NT 4.0 server using some batch script which would start at a certain time (maybe midnight when I am not there). Any suggestion on how to achieve this.

Thanks

use the shutdown.exe command from the resource kit,
make sure the scheduler service is started automatically, that it is running on an administrator account, and that it is active, then you can schedule an executable (e.g. a batch file) to run at a certain time on a certain day using the 'at' command.

Look at the shutdown command help for more info
