If I run a project that I used the SAS EG custom task System Command that Chris Hemedinger made, it works fine if the project is saved to my desktop but if I save the same project to a shared drive and run it the system command no longer works. By not work I mean that it doesn't execute on my local os at all, it shows my machine name and then just output: in the log, but if I run it locally I get back output:  C:\windows\system32.........etc in the log showing me that it ran.

 

I figured maybe it was a permissions setting on the shared drive but the weird thing is that I have other projects where the system command works fine from the shared drive. 

 

Is there a setting I'm missing?  Please help!

I would compare a system command that works on a shared drive project with the one that doesn't. Please post an example of each.
