Please log in for more thread options Hello
Unfortunately it seems to be a bit more than that!
Both the ftp server and the notify service are running as services under a
user account, 'ftpadmin' which, until I get this resolved, is an
Administrator acount.
An Administrator account already has Full Control over cmd.exe
When called by the Notify service as a scheduled task and the batch file
only displays a text msg it works - if it tries to run a vbs script it
doesn't.
The batch file with the vbs script runs ok from Start, Run ..
Just not when called from the Notify service!!??
Any thoughts, please - anyone??
Thanks
