I read all the instructions for the "at" command, and didn't see any way to set it to run every n minutes. Can this be done with it? If not, I suppose I could use the at command to submit the KeepAlive batch file and just let it loop the way it is set up now.
See any problems with that?

It's part of NT, and it works well (never had any problems with it). The only annoyance is that any on-screen messages go to the bit bucket, so you need to make sure that the batch file works before running it that way. (Also, you need to fully qualify all file names in the batch file; there no assumed current directory when AT runs something.)
