GUIless IFW

Post by bpennell »

Hi there,

I'm having difficulty scripting IFW to run when the user is NOT logged in.

It appears that the script will open a GUI interface to run the backup. This causes the backup to fail when the user is not logged on, because there's not an open session for the GUI to open in.

Is there a method of running IFW from the command line that will keep the gui from popping up? or is there an alternative to script the backup, where it doesn't require an active session?

Thanks
Eric

Have you tried the /hide switch when running IFW?

using the task scheduler? If so, there is an option to allow to run when
user not logged in.
