FileCopy() with password?

[LurchMan]

Hey Everyone -

I was wondering if there was a way to use FileCopy() or something simliar to copy files from one server to another (Server 2003 on both) using a password for the source of the file. I've already connected to the server through windows explorer, and I can run my compiled script manually and it works fine, but if I try and use Windows Scheduled Tasks it will fail everytime. I've tried to change that password that it uses in scheduled tasks but since its windows, it won't let me use a different password than what the local admin password is(I can't change it either..too much red tape). It's just kind of becoming a hassel to have to run this script every morning then manually rerun the program that uses these files.

Hope I explained this good enough...

Thanks for any and all help in advance,

Lurch

If you only need a password to start the copy process (not one for each file) then search example scripts for "password". There are a few that you can use for your script. If the password matches then copy if not then exit the script.

Thanks for that idea, but I ended up just putting the whole script (its small..only 50 lines) in a while 1 loop with a timer inside of it with an If statement. I figured out that the only thing holding it back was windows...go figure

thanks anyways

Windows cause an issue? You MUST be joking.
