Can I Have 2000 Server Auto Restart?

[Guest]

I need to find either a free app or shcedule Windows 2000 Server to
automatically restart every night for maintnence purposes. Does anyone know
of a way to do this?

I find psshutdown, part of PSTools from www.sysinternals.com, is a great
utility (and it's freeware).

I'm perplexed as to why you think it's necessary to reboot every night,
though.

As am I! It's my crazy Canadian boss' idea. I just follow orders. Thanks
for the tool. I'll take a look at it and report back if I have any other
questions.

Oh, and investigate the "at" command to schedule it.
