If you are running an NT4.0 domain, you will need to set the Local Security Policy for that Win2k machine. You will need give the account that you are using access to the following: Find these under \Local policies\User rights assignments Log on as a service Log on as a batch job Log on locally You will need local Admin privs to make these changes. HTH, Paul >>> steveg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx 02/19/03 02:00PM >>> I have a client with a new Win2000 TS box in an NT4 domain. What is happening is that certain local services, such as Task Schedule and TS Licensing, fail to start due to "Error 5: Access Denied". What is happening is that the system will not start services that use the LocalSystem account. I found info at MS Support related to AD Group Policies causing this, but the info does not directly apply to WIN2K in an NT domain. Does anybody know the fix? Note- If run other services as Administrator they work, but certain ones must run as LocalSystem thanks Steve Greenberg Thin Client Computing 34522 N.
