Not sure I understood all that. I have been attempting to run the scheduled task under the one-and-only username that ever accesses this box. (That's where the mapped network drives live.) So is it possible that re-installing as "Everyone" will fix it? I've been thoroughly stumped thus far as to why a bash script that runs fine from the command prompt misbehaves from task scheduler even tho running as the same user.
