Guest techyguyni Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 Hi As E-Mail alerts have been discontinued within Task Scheduler, I would like to know if there is any other way of getting around this, I don't no anything about power shell so treat this as a beginners question. I would like to be notified when a user logs onto my server via VPN, I have enabled logging of connections to a specific folder on my server but this is not ideal as I need to constantly login to the server to view the log files. Any help would be great. Thanks Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ikon Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 I haven't looked, but are you saying that Task Scheduler used to have the ability to send an email when a certain event occurred and now it doesn't? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yodafett Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 Right a batch file using bmail to send the alerts nice thing is it works with outlook and gmail. I use this for several alerts like services being stopped etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ikon Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 Shouldn't it work with pretty much any email system - I mean it's SMTP? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
