I am trying to give access rights to a non admin user to run a scheduled task on a windows 2003 server remotely.
I have created a group called RunTasks locally on the server and added the user to that group, I have then edited the security settings on the c:\windows\tasks folder to give RunTasks group full control, I can see this works as the task inherits the permissions from the folder.
However when the user browses the server \\servername they do not see the scheduled tasks folder.
The only way I can get it to show the scheduled tasks folder is by adding the user to the Backup Operators group on the server. This however still doesn't work as nothing happens when you click on the folder they cannot see any of the tasks.
Does anybody know what else I need to do/try to get this to work apart from adding the user to the administrators group!
Cheers
