In Windows 2000, you go into Scheduled Tasks and click on Advanced. Then yo click on AT Service Account

A box box up that give you two options for authentication:

System Account or This Account(one that you specify)

My question is this:

Does this entry (the authentication you specify) appear in the registry anywhere or is it configurable in some other way besides manaully going into each computer and changing each setting?

I have 150 computer across the country that I have to change from the system account to an account that I specify.

Any help would be apprecaited!!
 
If you have an Active Directory, you can push it with a Group Policy at the Computer level.

It's in the Computer Configuration, Security Settings, System Services.

Scroll down to Task Schedular and edit the properties. You can then add the security start up account you with to use with it.
