Thanks Nigel

The key was the -batch switch.  Remote is win2k box so no password
necessary.  Works well.  Now I can play with running 6 profiles with
cron or organizing my file server so I can nail 'em all with one
profile.

Organize usually isn't in my dictionary so I'll probably opt for the
hard way.

Thanks again

Lee
