running a program when w2000 starts

B

B.T.

Hi.

I need to run a .bat file when the system (W2000 Server) starts without
needing a user to go on.


I know how to do it if a user must log on (using the registry) but I don't
know ho to get it if I want the .bat runs when the PC starts and nobody logs
on.

This W2000 Server isn't a domain controller so I can't use the GPOs (I know
that using GPOs you can get what I want) and I can't promote it to domain
controller (because is an important stand alone server in a little company).

Thanks,

B.T.

Use the Task Scheduler (via the Control Panel). You can
tell it to launch tasks at boot time.
