What OS is important. IUSR account doesn't have permissions to cmd.exe (and a bunch of other things) by default in Windows Server 2003
Doesn't explain it was working, and now it's not, but one thing to check. What about GPOs applying to this server?

Namely, it mostly, but not always, gives out this error message: Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a0046' Permission denied /intranet/webquery/SearchResultObsoleteParts.asp, line 119 That line of code is objShell.Run strPSExec,0,true Which is just a reference to this line: strPSExec = "\\inetserver\Queries\psexec.exe -w e:\directory1\directory2 \\avante -u mycompany\_udtpuller -p ThePassword cscript GetUDTData.vbs COMP_ALERT " & strPartNum & " -r " & strDataSetNum We're using an older version of psexec, just to avoid issues with dismissing the EULA. The page used to work at one point, but now it's not working well at all - something changed in December, AFAICT, but nobody's fessing up, nor can I find anything different. After googling and a bit of thinking, I followed the directions in this article - http://support.microsoft.com/kb/197964/ - which seemed to clear it up for about 20 minutes, but now it's not working again, and I am not able to figure out why. Anyone have thoughts on what I should be looking at/for? ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
