How do I add an environment variable for a windows user
- I have a sheduling engine that runs jobs on windows 2003 server.
- It runs as a particular domain user.
- I don't have access to log on as the user but I have admin access.
- I need to be able to script storing a password in an environment variable that is specific to the user
- The user does not appear to have an environment on the target platform because HKU\SID does not exist in the registry for the user. (SID is the users domain SID)
- but it has a profile
- I cant add HKU\SID\Environment\VAR_NAME .... using reg.exe, it returns ERROR: The parameter is incorrect.
Any ideas?
