You are correct about "network path not found". As for connecting to the scheduled tasks folder, I am a bit confused. I can type \\remotemachinename from the run line on my PC and I can see all of the shares on the remote machine. I can open the scheduled tasks folder, but am unable to create a new task. (Obviously my problem).

What confuses me is that I have admin rights on the remote PC. I'm thinking it might be something that has been set in the local security policy (Win2k machines) but I'm just not sure what setting it might be - if that's even the case.
