Network Service Account

Our DBA uses the AT command to backup his Orable databases to a network
resource. The System Account runs the Task Scheduler and does not have
rights to a network share. We'd rather not use a network account with a
password, as that would not be a good practice. Any suggestions for an
account to use or reasonable alternative?

You have to use a Network Account, you also want to use the full GUI
Scheduled Tasks instead of the command line AT. The Scheduled Tasks has a
place where you give it the credentials that the Task is to run under, while
the command line AT command does not.
