Does anyone know of a method or program that would allow
you to enable or disable a LAN connection on a PC running
Windows 2000/XP using the task scheduler?

I have a system with two network adapters that I want to
have enable and disable on a schedule.

Thanks in advance.

Strictly speaking NETSH can't enable/disable the interface but you may be
able to use it to achieve the same end result. See:

262265 - Error Message When You Use Netsh.exe to Enable or Disable a Network
Adapter (http://support.microsoft.com/?id=262265).
