Securing batch files

Is there a way to secure the script of my batch file in Windows 2000 Server. I don't want anyone to be able to open my batch file as it has a username and password to access a shared drive. I want to execute this batch file when the server is started.

If it's on an NTFS formatted hard drive, just right-click on it and go to the Security tab. Then adjust the permissions to only allow whoever you want to access it. And make sure you set it so it can do whatever it needs to when you have it run on your server (not sure what it does or how it runs, so do some tests).....
