Re: Scheduling Tasks with jt.exe

Maybe I wasn't clear in my posts. I don't have a problem setting up a task
if I use my own credentials. What I'm trying to do is logon to a
workstation as user A and create a task on the server to run under user B
credentials. I already made sure the user I want the task to run as is
authorized to run as a batch job on the server. Once I create the job if I
go to the task scheduler on the server and enter a password it runs
correctly.
Another thing that I have found is that I can run jobs remotely from my
workstation on our test server but not on our production server. The only
differences I found were Act as part of the operating system, create a token
object and log on as a service on the production server are all set to
domainname\ntservice. The test server has no settings. Would any of these
settings cause the problems I'm having?

I don't have access to a Win2000 server right now but
had no problem scheduling a task on an SBS server
from one of the workstations, using this line:
schtasks /create /s SomeServer /u SomeDomain\config
/p SomePassword /sc daily /st 13:01:00 /tn "Test"
/tr c:\temp\test.bat
The task ran at 13:01 as expected.
You must make sure that the account specified after the
/u switch is authorised to run as a batch job on the
target machine.

Sorry I didn't mention the server version. In any case, I tried toschedule
a task on a remote server from my workstation via schtasks.exe. Itcreates
the task correctly, but it won't set the account information. I haveon
administrative rights on the remote server and the local security policy
the server allows me to log on as a batch job. This is basically thesetting
same
problem I had using jt.exe. Has anyone successfully created a job on a
remote server using either schtasks or jt.exe? If so, were there any
security settings that had to be modified?
If I logon to my local machine with the userid and password that I'm
the job up on the remote server to run under then it works correctly./s
All
of these machines are running w2k. I've already modified schtasks.exe to
run on w2k. The following is the create statement and the warning
message
that is returned.
Please be aware that I'm a programmer, not a windows administrator so I
would appreciate it if you could be as precise as possible.
schtasks /create /tn tstdennis /tr "program name" /sc daily /st 09:00:00
\\computername /u domain\user /p password /ru domain\user /rp passwordrights
WARNING: The Scheduled task "tstdennis" has been created, but may not run
because the account information could not be set.

You should have said that you wanted to run the job on
a Win2000 PC. Here is how to do it with schtasks.exe:

Thanks for the reply. It is my belief that schtasks doesn't work on
win2k
which is what our servers are running.
All of the users that will be using this window have administrator
onon
the servers so I guess I can just have them run it on the servers via
terminal service.
In the meantime, if anyone has had success setting up and running jobs
someremote servers with jt.exe I would appreciate it if they could shine
Thelight on what security settings were necessary...

I'm trying to schedule tasks on a remote server by using jt.exe.
thetasks
are being created but there are a couple of problems. The first isrun
the
password doesn't seem to be getting set. After I add the task I
try
to
it from the server and get a "cannot start" error. After I reset
problempassword through the scheduler GUI it works fine. The second
/scis
theI
can't run the task on the server from a workstation. I have full
administrator rights on the server. The syntax I use for setting
up
job
is:
jt.exe /sm \\computername /ctj starttime=09:00 startdate=12/20/2006
type=daily typearguments=1 /sj
applicationname=c:\UIBatch\Exe\ui_batch.exe
parameters= "parm list" workingdirectory=c:\UIBatch\Exe suspend=0
logonDOMAINNAME\userid password /saj c:\winnt\tasks\testing.
I have already checked the local policy on the server and I can
as
set?a
batch job. Are there any other security settings I need to check
or
Thanks in advance for your help and Merry Christmas to all.

jt.exe is not known for ease of use. Much easier to use
schtasks.exe.
It comes with WinXP.
If you have doubts about policy settings, use the interactive Task
Scheduler to schedule some test jobs.
