Hi,
we work with W2K Server SP4 and found out that we cannot run a scheduled task 'AT' with a normal local user account (non-admin account).
Even when granting the following rights to the 'normal user' it still says 'Access denied' when we try to start AT as normal user:
- log on as batch-job
- log on as service
- log on locally
- increase quotas
- log on locally
- act as part of the OS
But nothing helps. Please could you help us ?
Any ideas why this doesn't work ?

Thanks,
Thorsten
 
Make sure the user account has rights to access the directory of where you job lives and also any directories the job may be accessing.
 
might want to try the task scheduler node in policy too ;)
