Using Backburner to automate tasks other than rendering

A 2 parts script automation tutorial (part 1, part 2) at the Autodesk MaxStation blog, that start with base example usage of 2 DOS (command prompt) automation tasks - executing MaxScript from DOS (3dsmax -U MAXScript myscript.ms) and sending job to Backburner from DOS (cmdjob -jobName "test" -manager mysever ...), and the main idea of that tutorial is to send scripting tasks to Max via cmdjob. Actually the cmdjob is build and good for processing a list of tasks, and maybe I have not a luck then use it for runing scripts. However, cmbjob is very useful utility.
