Pass a blank password to wbadmin (windows backup) via command line/batch file <p>I have a Windows 2008 R2 server and need to execute the windows backup via a batch file on a scheduled task. The issue I have is the backup destination is a unix share drive with a username but no password (I dont have the option of adding a password as its outside of my control). Because there is no password the script stops waiting for a password to be entered when its set as a scheduled task. I might add, this script works absolutely fine if I run it manually, oddly without having to even press enter to put a blank password in.</p> <p>My question: Is it feasible when the batch file is executed by the task that it can also presses/passes "enter" as if it was answering the command when it comes back "Input password"</p> <p>Here's the code - I've removed the destination path and username for security. Its a UNC path.</p> <p>wbadmin start backup -backuptarget:DESTINATION -allCritical -include:c: -vssFull -user:USER -quiet</p> <p>Thanks</p>
