I have an Ntbackup batch file scheduled using AT to run every weekday night at 22:00. The batch file runs perfectly well the first time after the AT command is scheduled. It never runs again. Manual implementation of the batch file runs perfectly.

The schedule service is logging on as the administrator account to access network shares.
The system is Win NT SP4 with SBS 4.5 installed.

It sounds like your trying to run the command every day from one schedule. I'm not sure if this is possible but you can run the at command several times with just one kickoff date. Ie at monday, at tuesday, at wednesday....... Insted of at mon, tue wed.....

You mentioned this worked before. What's changed since it started to fail?
If you can, post your bat file.
I also noticed another "AT" posting a couple questions up, that might be helpful.

at a command prompt from any NT box, type this

or
at \\compname 23:00 /every:m,t,w,th,f c:\mybatch.cmd

if done from another NT box

this will run mybatch.cmd every weekday at 11pm
