Unable to mount disk (local and remote) using Windows 2000 task scheduler

[Fredje]

Hallo,

We have a simple script which mounts a share on another server.

When running this script on the command-line (as local administrator)
we are able to create a mapping. We autheniticate on the other server
with an account which has sufficient permissions to make the mapping.
We do not have domain accounts. This all works fine when run
interactively.

When running an identical script in the MS Windows 2000 task scheduler
the mapping can not be created. We are not able to map to a remote or
local share. On the local server the user is in the admin group. User
rights should not be an issue?

We haven't got a clue what might create this problem. We would
appreciate your comments and advice.

Thank you very much for your kind attention!

Fred

Try adding the same local account username and password to the remote server
with permissions to the resource.
