Hi,<br />
&nbsp;<br />
&nbsp;I have Windows 2012 Server and Routing and Remote Access service stops at time for no good reason.<br />
&nbsp;So instead of troubleshooting the issue, I decide to run a scheduled task to stop/start RRAS service every hour or day using a batch file &quot;Restart-RRAS.bat&quot; with two commands<br />
net stop remoteaccess<br />
net start remoteaccess<br />
<br />
But I learned that I could not run it in normal command window. Rather I have open &quot;Command Prompt(Administrator)&quot; to run these commands. I also learned that I could use RUNAS command like:<br />
RUNAS /netonly /user:vpn\administrator cmd, but the problem is that I have to store password in a text file which I don't want to do.<br />
<br />
Is there a better solution?<br />
<br />
Thanks.

Scheduling Stop/Start Routing and Remote Access

Remote access may refer to the connection to a data-processing system from a remote location, for example through a virtual private network remote desktop software, terminal emulation, or the activation of features of a business telephone system from outside the business's premises.
