Re: Using the Shutdown command over a network

Might be something to do with the account that the script is executing under, mabye one of the system accounts no longer supplies it's user credentials when challenged for access to a network resource.

Try making sure that the script is executing as a normal user that you have created and assigned the correct rights over the client computers.

The user that this task runs as is a member of the Domain Admins group. The user account has not changed in all the time we have made use of this scheduled task.

If I log onto an XP workstation as a member of the Domain Admins group and then run that script, it works for most PCs, but there will still be an occasional one that gives the same "Access denied" error message.
