hi i confirmed that the firewall is off on both clients and servers , as i said im able to access them from any windows 2003 server. could it be not supported becuase windows 2008 and vista have something called task scheduler which is different ?

they are on windows xp domain computer .the windows 2008 is the domain controller , the windows 2003 is the other dc.these tasks are created automaticaly using the new group policy (Control Panel Settings) introduced in windows 2008.

 

I use them to create tasks that would shutdown the computers at specific time everyday and i also create other tasks to execute a script to backup data to remote locations etc. I need to access these over the network to verify they exist , sometime i need to modify or create a specific task quickly.

 

its just like how u add a printer on a client pc using the printers share.
