FMS Developer Ed & Local System account

Is it only possible to run the FMS service as the Local
System account in Windows Server 2003? I tried to change the Log On
params to a user with privileges to another server's share but the
service won't start up afterward. And in the info box in the FMS
Admin app there is a little tiny tooltip within the popup message
that says something about "License info". I changed the user back
to Local System account and the service started up right away. I'm
trying to test an app's ability to access a different path that's
set in the application.xml <VirtualDirectory><Streams>
node.
So, is it a limitation of the FMS Developer edition or is it
something on our end? I thought the only limitation was 10
conncections.

... i have unchecked that from there and again after some minutes say 10 -15 minutes it gets locked ...
Hi,
Perhaps you can look into these areas for stored (and expired) password:
Check to see if there are any Services that is running using the affected administrator account.
Check to see if there are any Scheduled Tasks running using the affected administrator account.
Hope that helps.
Cheers,

Requirement is to run CMD.EXE under the Local System Account. So that we can map a network drive to be used by a windows service, which will be created by command: - net use z: \\servername\sharedfolder /persistent:yes

Environment:
OS: Windows 7 32/64 bit, Windows 2008 Server 64
bit/ Windows 2012 Server 64 bit
Priority:
- Critical
Requirement: - Since
the Windows Service is running under the Local System Account, we would like to emulate this same behaviour.
Basically, we would like to run CMD.EXE under the Local System Account. So that we can map a network drive to be used by a service using following
command
net use z: \\servername\sharedfolder /persistent:yes.
Already Attempt:
We tried to launch the CMD.exe using the DOS Task Scheduler AT command. Here’s a sample command:
AT 10:36 /interactive cmd.exe
But I received a warning that “due
to security enhancements, this task will run at the time excepted but not interactively.”
It turns out that this approach will work for XP, 2000 and Server 2003 but due to session isolation
Interactive services no longer work on Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 and above.
2. We
tried to create a secondary Windows Service via the Service Control (sc.exe) which merely launches CMD.exe.
<Drive>:\sc create RunCMDAsLSA binpath= "cmd" type=own type=interact <Drive>:\sc
start RunCMDAsLSA
In this case the service fails to start and results it the following error message:
FAILED 1053: The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion.
3. One
suggestion, we found to launch CMD.exe via a Scheduled Task, but
it is not giving any option to launch CMD.exe in interactive mode; so that I can map network drive using net command.
4. I read an article, which
demonstrates the use of PSTools from SysInternals. I launched the command line and executed following command
psexec -i -s cmd.exe
PSTools worked fine, but It seems that in scope of Sysinternals Software License
Terms. You may not "use the software for commercial software hosting services."
Application will deploy on client, which will be like commercial,
so we are not able to use PSTools.
Kindly assist us for achieving the requirement. We have tried all the ways, but nothing is working for us. Kindly suggest.
I will be really thankful.

Hi Sir,
Nothing worked from above for us. You can see our remarks on posted query.
That’s why, we posted on forum.
And there will not be any vulnerability, because, if we will use "net
use ..."
in network domain; definitely,
we will provide username and password of mapped drive system.
And, that system, itself is given by client; so that, there must not be any vulnerability; they are ready to provide user name and password.
We need a way; by which we can complete the requirement. Kindly assist.

Cannot Retrieve referenced URL in wscript file from Local System Account, but not other accounts on the computer.

Hello,
I have a WScript File that includes an external resource (js file).
It works on one computer and it does not work on another computer.
If I run this file from a normal admin command prompt everything runs fine on both computers.
If I run this file from the Local System account using PsExec it runs fine on one of the computers and throws an error "Cannot Retrieve referenced URL" on the other computer.
The reason I want it to run from the Local System account is that it is executed from a Windows Service.
Is there some setting or some way for the IE cache to get corrupt on the Local System account or something like that?

JRV,
You are by far the worst 'support' person I've ever seen. If you aren't going to be thoughtful in providing support, don't pretend. If you're going to pretend, leave your condescension on the shelf. You have provided no thoughtfulness whatsoever to his issue,
and have in no way improved the discourse. You are arrogant and condescending without exhibiting any intelligence whatsoever. I'm impressed Matt kept calm through your demeaning, counterproductive diatribes.
Matt,
First I'd check UAC settings, because I believe that can change how elevation works substantially.
Second, I would check the versions of wscript.exe on both machines, both in System32 and SysWow, and I'd check for updates bypassing WSUS to make sure there's not something silly going on there (totally a shot in the dark, catch-all theory).
Have you made any headway in the last few weeks?
-John
This is not a support forum and it is not for assistance in fixing broken configurations. It is a scripting forum. The OP proved that the issue is not the script but the environment it is running in. You should not get mad just because you are
not getting satisfaction.

Ifweb60 processes run as local system account on w2k- how do i change?

i am running forms 6i on an 2000 box using
the forms servlet config and oc4j with 9ias.
this runs fine except that the ifweb60 processes
are owned by the local system account. this in
turn means i can't map the forms60_path to a
network drive because i can't give network
privileges to a local system account. so,
how do i change the account that spawns the
ifweb60 processes?
thanks,
marta

Never mind, resolved this myself by using the netbios name to substitute the value I need on each individual domain.
$domain = Get-ADDomain | Select-Object -expandproperty netbiosname
Set-Location "dc=$domain,dc=dom,dc=co,dc=uk'
Sets location as:
PS AD:\dc=a,dc=dom,dc=co,dc=uk>
ON another domain same script results
PS AD:\dc=b,dc=dom,dc=co,dc=uk>
Exactly what I needed!

Running 10G as a non local system account on Windows Server 2003

Hi,
I have an Oracle 10G database running on Windows Server 2003, SP2. I have created the database and it all works fine while the service is running as the default local system account. However, when I change the user that the service runs as to a different account the database starts and opens, and I can log on as SYS using a bequeath connection but I am unable to log on as any other user going through the listener. The listener responds to TNSpings, and all seems to be OK. When I switch it back to the local system user again it all works fine.
Can anyone offer any advice or help?
Thanks,
Rob

That's probably because the listener is still running as the local system account. Have you tried to change the listener service to run as the same account as the Oracle service?

SMA on Windows 7 with local system account

Hello,
I use SMA on Windows 7.
When I launch the wizard (sma.exe) to capture the profiles with an admin account : it works, i have myfile.sma and myfile.sma.DriveC, which contains all profiles.
But if I launch the same wizard (sma.exe) with Local System account, none of profiles are saves, so I don't have a myfile.sma.DriveC, juste myfile.sma one.
(i must use Local System account)
(to launch sma.exe as a local system account on Windows vista/7, you have to run cmd.exe as an admin, then launch "psexec -i -s cmd.exe" (so you have to dl psexec))
Thanks

When I launch SMA under the "SYSTEM" account, it seems the problem is that the user folders are not selected by default (even if you select the user accounts to migrate). So you have to select the files and folders that you want to migrate (e.g. the "c:\users" folder). When I did this, then I got both the .sma file and the .DriveC file in the location that I specified.
The way I run as "SYSTEM" is by replacing c:\windows\system32\magnify.exe with c:\windows\system32\cmd.exe and then choosing the Magnifer option at the windows logon screen (note that you have to take ownership of magnify.exe in order to replace it). This gives me a command prompt at the logon screen to do whatever I want to.
I don't think SMA was really designed to be run this way (under the "SYSTEM" account), so if you're still having problems after trying the above, then you're going to need to change your process to run SMA under an actual user account or else find some other tool to use.

How do I have an exe in a logon script run as a different user (either a domain admin or even the local system account)

So, I'm having some problems getting a logon script to work. I need a way to deploy the agent that we use via login/startup scripts and what I have works fine if the user has admin rights, or if UAC is disabled. I've tried to convert the .exe
to an .msi to make it easier, but the .msi never works and it's only distributed as an .exe. We deploy this to different clients, I can't disable UAC in their environment unless they specifically tell us to. Can anyone think of a way around this?
I've been searching for days and I'm just lost. If we could execute the file as the system account, or connect to shares using a startup script instead of logon, that would be perfect. Basically what it does is check to see if the process for the
agent is running (agentmon.exe) so we don't attempt to install it if it is already installed, if it's not, then it calls on a different agent installer depending on the IP address of the system (for clients that have more than one location). Here's what
I've got written that works for me in my test environment:

You need to read the documentation carefully:
The Deploy Agents install package is created using a Configure Automatic Account Creation wizard. The wizard copies agent settings from an existing machine ID or machine ID template and generates an install package called
KcsSetup.All settings and pending agent procedures from the machine ID you copy from—except the machine ID, group ID, and organization ID—are applied to every new machine ID created with the package.
Including Credentials in Agent Install Packages
If necessary, an agent install package can be created that includes an administrator
credentialto access a customer network. Credentials are only necessary if users are installing
packages on machines and do not have administrator access to their network. The administrator credential is encrypted, never available in clear text form, and bound to the install package.

Running a cscript.exe as LOCAL SYSTEM account and IE cache corruption for that account.

When running a cscript.exe wsf file that references a script that retrieved from the internet is it possible that some sort of IE cache corruption or permissions issue in
C:\Windows\SysWOW64\config\systemprofile\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows will cause the script to fail to retrieve the external resource?
Also, is there some sort of known condition that will cause the permissions on C:\Windows\SysWOW64\config\systemprofile\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows to not be set to any valid user?

The system profile is set to be protected. It should not be modified.
You cannot run a file downloaded from the Internet. It is tagged (blocked) and cannot be used until it is unblocked.
PowerShell has a CmdLet that does this: Unblock-File <filename>

Scheduled Task to run as Local System cannot access the Netlogon Share in Windows 8.1

I've created a Scheduled Task that is setup to run as the local System Account which uses cscript.exe to execute a VBScript residing on the Domain Netlogon Share. It works perfectly on Windows 7, but fails miserably on Windows 8.1. When I open a command
prompt as the System account and try to run the script from the Netlogon share manually, I get the following error:
CScript Error: Loading script \\<FullyQualifiedomainName>\Netlogon\xyz.vbs failed (The account used is a computer account. Use your global user account or local user account to access this server. ).
Is there something different I need to set in Windows 8 to get this to run?
Thank you!!
Eric Myers

Hi Eric,
What's the result of Arnav's question?
How did you set it? Please set it as the following steps:
1.Go to Start > Administrative Tools > Task Scheduler
2.In the Task Scheduler window double click your task, and on the "General" tab, under "Security options" section, click the "Change User or Group" button.
4.Make sure "From this location" is set to the local machine name (to change click "Locations" button and select the local computer name)
5.Type "SYSTEM" in the text box and press ok . Under "When running the task, use the following user account:" you should see "NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM".

Oracle 10g on Windows 2003: Can't start with any account but Local System

Fresh install of Oracle 10g on Windows 2003. I install as a member of the local admin group and everything works great. The various services are starting as Local System, though, and I'd prefer to set them up to start as a specific domain user account.
When I make that change, however, I can't get any of the Oracle related services to start. I've added this domain user to the local ora_dba group on my server, given it the ability to log on as a batch job and log on as a service in the local security policy. Doesn't seem to help.
I saw a thread that implied using a domain user account wasn't supported (didn't seem right to me, but what the hell), so I created a local user account and tried that. Same result.
Something I'm missing?
Thanks.

What is missing, I suspect, is reading the installation docs.
http://docs.oracle.com
If that doesn't work then come back and ask specific requestions referencing the appropriate document and naming the actual version you are trying to install (ps 10g is a marketing name not a version number).

SharePoint farm - SQL Server - MSSQLSERVER service is running as "Local System" - Can I change it to Domain User account?

Hi there,
In my SharePoint 2010 farm - on the SQL Server:
The MSSQLSERVER service is running under Local System.
1. Can I change it to run as a normal Domain User account?
2. Does it need any extra privileges?
3. Is it a safe thing to do?
Brief description will be very useful.
Thanks so much.

You need to create Service account with password never expire option+ User never change password
Then you need to go through below recommendation from Microsoft

Planning for Services, Accounts, and Connections
