Yes, you would.

I dunno what you need to achieve, and maybe I'm not thinking straight (hey,
it's now Monday morning and it's been a rough weekend), but I think you
should be able to have all you scheduled tasks on one server and have those
tasks make changes on the other servers. Scripts executed from a HTTP
request should be able to make any changes to a server that are necessary,
so a scheduled tasks running on one server should be able to remotely
manage/update/whatever other servers. For example, I've just set up
something to monitor the CF and SQL Server services on server A from server
B. If server B finds a failure on A it runs an ASP script on A to stop and
start the necessary services.
>And ditto about that Friday-feeling *uggh*
I think I'm a midweek kinda person, Monday mornings are worse. At least on
Fridays there's a weekend to look forward to. ;->
