I'm not averse to Microsoft-bashing myself, but rebooting a server just
because it's Windows seems a bit harsh and unwarranted. No properly
administered server should require it. What exact errors do you
encounter if you don't reboot?

I can't replicate that. Double-clicking a local batch file on a NT5.2
server will execute it without any warning. Only if the batch file
itself or any executable it might call is remote will I get warnings.
I have plenty of scheduled batch files running on NT5.2 servers, albeit
not through AT but through the GUI "Scheduled Tasks". Any reason why you
don't want to use that?
