沙田九約






排頭村




黃泥頭村




作壆坑村


昔日的瀝源分為「九約」，「九」即九個分區，「約」就是一個聯盟，結盟目的為方便村與村之間的聯繫與合作，九約包括：




  1. 大圍約：積存圍


  2. 田心約：田心圍、新田。


  3. 徑口約：上徑口、下徑口、顯田。


  4. 排頭約：排頭、上禾輋、下禾輋、銅鑼灣。


  5. 隔田約：隔田、山廈圍。


  6. 火炭約：火炭、拔子窩、落路下、河瀝背、九肚、石榴洞、山尾、黃竹洋、長瀝尾、凹背灣、龜地、禾寮坑、赤泥坪、馬料。


  7. 沙田頭約：沙田頭、作壆坑。


  8. 沙田圍約：沙田圍、多石、灰窰下、茅笪、圓洲角、王屋、謝屋。


  9. 小瀝源約：小瀝源、插桅杆、十二笏、牛皮沙、大藍寮、石古壟、黃泥頭、觀音山、芙蓉別、茂草岩、老鼠田、南山、花心坑、梅子林。


「九約」起始有謂昔時車公曾顯聖消除瘟疫，村民為謝車公恩澤，乃捐資擴建沙田車公廟，並成立「九約」，且在神前許願，倡建太平清醮，至今九約仍然聯合舉辦十年一屆的太平清醮。

Run scheduled task as local user group (not BUILTIN)

Image
0 I am trying to run a scheduled task with User Group (not a single user). This is working fine when I in the field "when running a task, use the following user account:" insert BUILTIN User Group (for example: Administrators or Users). But when I try it with the created Local User Group (example: TestGroup) it is not working. The Users in the TestGroup are the same as in the Administrators group. What could be the problem? Are there some restrictions to the Created User Group compared to BUILTINUsers? scheduled-tasks taskscheduler windowstaskschedule share | improve this question asked Nov 15 '18 at 15:36 Far...
