Sorry, not entirely programming related...
When I run a batch file on a server at its console to copy some files from it to another machine, it works.
When I use the 'at' utility to execute it in a scheduled way, it doesn't.
I'm thinking it might be a permissions problem. When I run from the console, I am logged in as Administrator.
Can anyone tell me what permission set 'at' belongs to in Windows NT? Is it SYSTEM? The computer name?
Dazed and confused
Thanks for any help!

I'm not sure is 'at' uses a 'run as' feature.
i.e. run as adminsistrator. Long time since I looked at at. Sorry.
Most of the time it will queue it as Administrator (or at least someone with administrative rights). Note also that you need administrative rights to queue something remotely.
AT is a little wacky to use. It took me a while to get it right with all the parameters and stuff. There is another utility called RUNNOW (if I'm not mistaken) which simplifies AT a lot.
I resolved to write my own UI to work with Scheduler APIs to schedule stuff because of those complications.
Good Luck,
