Phil,
I had not problem installing the scheduler service remotely.
Using the AT-Command this is what to do:

Define a batchfile (makeservice.bat) on the remote machine with the
following lines:
c:
cd \adsm32\baclient
c:\adsm32\baclient\dsmcutil INST /NAME:"ADSM Scheduler Service"
/PASSWORD:yourpw
(line continued) /AUTOSTART:YES >c:\adsm32\baclient\makeservice.log

I've found it necessary to navigate to C: and CD to the BACLIENT directory
in the batchfile. I tried this without, but the command then failed. It's
not necessary to provide more parameters (like Nodename), so this worked on
every server without changes.

Now issue this AT-command (assuming you want to install the service at 5pm
today:
AT \\SERVERNAME 17:00:00 c:\adsm32\baclient\makeservice.bat

Now just wait until makeservice.log shows the right output and you can start
the service using the server manager.

Good luck!
Regards,
Michael
