This is off topic but there are so many knowledable admins on this
list I thought I'd throw this question out.

We have a series of batch file that create NT users on STANDALONE
servers as well as other functions related to accounts setup (create
directories, set permissions, etc).  These batch files utilize
several utilities from the resource kit.

Finally the question.  We initiate these batch files from a central
computer which either performs the setup directly on the remote
STANDALONE computer using net shares or creates batch files that are
copies to the local computer to be run on that machine as part of a
scheduled process.  One of the commands is the ADDUSERS command
which is part of a batch to run locally on the target computer.  It
doesn't work and I think its due to rights but I'm pulling my hair
out trying to get the right combination.  When this batch file runs
(according to CRON (ported to NT... check out AINTX at
http://maxx.mc.net/~jlh/nttools/html/nttools.htm)).  The ADDUSERS
does not work (even when it runs while ADMIN user is logged in), but
the rest of the batch runs without a hitch.  If I manually run this
batch from that STANDALONE computer (logged in as ADMIN) the whole
script works great!

I've got CRON running as ADMIN equivalent, I've given the CRON user
"Log on as batch job" rights and it still doesn't work.

Any ideas?  What am I missing?  Thanks for the feedback.
