victorawesome Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 Hi I am trying to use an AutoIt script to automate some tasks on a Windows box. The tasks involve opening up a program and compiling some code and changing some configurations. I have the script running as a service (Q4 from the FAQs) From a Linux box I am trying to start the service by sshing into the Windows box (has ssh-cygwin server on it) and running "net start service_name". I am getting this error Administrator@CGYVMSRV03 ~ $ net start service_name System error 5 has occurred. Access is denied. I am logged in as administrator so I figure I should have permission to do anything I want. I have the service set to Logon as: Local System Account (with a check mark on "Allow service to interact with desktop") Can someone tell me if what I'm trying to do is possible (since I am trying to start the service without a graphic interface) or if there is a better way to do this? Thanks in advance. Vic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure where else I could ask a question and I'm just wondering if anyone has a better solution for me. I have read about psexec but that won't work for me because I'm using a Linux box.
