Dear all

I have created a Windows Task Scheduler job in Windows 2000.

This job is set with a domain admin user so that the job can execute a dos batch file to install our Tivoli client software on the PC.

This job is set on "At user logon"

It works fine on the PC that I have created this job. But when I copy this on to the network drive so that a domain logon script copies this .job to the local drive (c:\winnt\tasks) of the PC, the job displays "Could Not Start" when checking the local PC task scheduler panel.

Why? the job has a privilage user set as the security and points to a dos batch script that is also held on the PC.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Andy
