Does anyone know if it is possible to schedule a program to run in NT even if there is no-one logged in without having to use the AT command?

If you update to Explorer 5 or higher, you get the Task Scheduler Service Under NT4, you can schedule a program under any account that is allowed to log on localy on the server.
Nobody must be logged on to local console.

Thanks, but it needs to run from a desktop PC and connect to an FTP server. I was thinking about running it as a service, in fact.......Hmmmmm

Hi nessie,
Forget the word 'server' i put in.
Works on NT/W2K/XP
You can run a app from task scheduler, or use the ftp command from NT.
just type ftp in command prompt and a ? for the help.
