RE: [WS_FTP Forum] Schedule using AT command on WIndows NT

[Hass, Harold]

Title: Message

Maybe.  The scheduling capability in Window NT is primitive.  Worse, it usually requires a security context to run the job so it wants the user to be logged in.  The Resource Kit outlines a way to make a process (user initiated job) run as a service that can be initiated with a specific security context without needing the user to be logged in.  (Unix admins, please don't laugh!)  Anyway, look up SRVANY in the resource kit or go to microsoft tech net.  That will outline a way to make a service that executes as a service.  This service can then run a batch job that has AT commands.  This involves Registry hacks (danger, danger, danger!) and sometimes is successful.  I suggest you practice on a NT workstation first, it works just the same. 

 

At best, this is a bad answer.  I've had limited success and wish I didn't know what I do know about SRVANY!

 

Gook luck,
