I'm running PHP on an IIS 6 server and need to setup a script to run on a scheduled basis.

Is there a cron equivalent in on win2k3/IIS6?

Thanks

Will

scheduled tasks can perform the action, although a bit more clunky.

would this be done by running a browser through the task scheduler and passing the script url to it?

you'd run it through one of the command line interfaces: php.exe or php-win.exe (with PHP 5)
