Trying to run NAV URL from Windows Scheduler

I've been having an issue when trying to run a codeunit from a NAS - part of it's job is to generate and email a PDF. In the test environment this was fine, but in live it failed. It's some sort of permission issue but there are no errors logged and it's been difficult to track the issue down.

To help try and establish where the problem is I thought I would run NAV from the Windows Scheduler.

Here's my test script which is almost right -

set wshshell = wscript.createobject("WScript.Shell")
WshShell.run "navision://client/run?database=C:\Dynamics%20NAV%20Clients\NAV%202009%20CTP4%20classic\database.fdb&company=Blank&target=Form%2050000&servertype=NAVISION&ntauthentication=1"

The one issue is that it keeps prompting for a database user rather than using window authentication.

Any suggestions why it doesn't work?

Thanks

Simon

    Have you tried it with ntauthentication=0?

    Thanks for the suggestion - but seems to be ignoring it.

    So instead, I added an ID=, logged in once and now it seems ok?
