I've never fiddled with NT servers. However, if the only real weekly
maintenence needed is to reboot the servers, cann't this be accomplished
with some software? (Something analogous to cron running shutdown)

However, focusing solely on noticeable service interruptions to the end users frequently degrades into the practice of rebooting Windows weekly to improve reliability. I hate the concept of doing "Scheduled Maintenance" on servers. I don't want to drive into the office to reboot servers at 10PM on Sunday night so they don't lock up during the workweek. My time is more valuable than that.
