Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance

Hi,

I set up one task (using Scheduled Task in windows 2000 Server). When
this task Run as is same as logged on user then the task is running
fine otherwise not. Can it be possible that our task will run despite
of whoever will be the logged on.

I will try to explain by example.
Logged on User on Windows 2000 Server: User A
Run as property in Scheduled Task: User B
Then the task is not running. I am getting the error message in log
file as the Task is terminated. It is terminated either by
Administrator ot by Scheduled Task Service.

Logged on User on Windows 2000 Server: User A
Run as property in Scheduled Task: User A
The task is running fine.

I really don't know the problem. somebody please let me know.


Thanks
Nikki
