Permissions on Services via CompMgt

[RJ]

Hello all.

I am attempting to grant our Unix group the right to
manage some 3rd party backup software services on our W2K
and W2K3 servers. I would like them to be able to open
Computer Management on their own PC, connect to any of
our servers, and then stop start or pause these services.

I have tested granting the "start stop and pause"
permission (on the backup client software) to our Unix
group via local policy and GPO, but am still getting
access denied. I also adjusted the permissions
on "services.exe" so that they had read and execute
permission.

Unfortunately I can find no useful info on this on the
internet or otherwise, so any help would be great. I
know it's probably one stupid thing that I'm missing
here....

Thanks in advance.

I don't know if this will help but you might want to try assigning service
permissions via subinacl as described in the KB link below. If you try that you may
want to remove GPO settings for the service so that there is no conflict and try to
use just subinacl. --- Steve
