Automatic files copying Grzegorz Gruza 07-08-2005

 Welcome,

I had following problem - I need to check file share on server, when
somebody put file to it, I want to another server move this file into
its local folder for further processing. I tried to do it using
following batch file:

move /Y \server\ShareName\*.* c:\XXX\Temp\
move /Y c:\XXX\Temp\*.* c:\XXX\

This batch file run from command line works OK. But I would like to run
it from task scheduler and I have a problem:
If I run my butch under account with administrative privileges - all
it's OK. But batch doesn't run from "normel user" account. I don't see
any errors in task scheduler error log, but nothing is done. When I run
this batch using schtasks /run .. then I see following error
ERROR: Passing the user credential for local connection.

I would like to run my tasks on Windows 2003, but IMO problem is for
complete NT familly.

Can anybody tell me, what should I have set to run my task?

Best regards

The move command causes cmd.exe to be invoked and the permissions on
cmd.exe do not explicitly allow your normal user to run cmd.exe unless
they are logged on interactively. So for a scheduled task, it won't
execute. You need to grant the normal user account Read & Execute and
Read permissions on cmd.exe.

Alternatively, assign the special account "BATCH" the Read & Execute
permissions on Cmd.exe, rather than the specific user account. This will
allow *any* user accounts defined for scheduled tasks to execute.

Until I had set appropriate rights on cmd.exe, I got "Access Denied"
eror and job "Could not start". Now I have quite differrent problem.
