FTP is an IIS component, it uses a local logon so requires local logon rights. This is something that has always irked me about IIS.
 
As for stopping/starting services. If you have granted the proper ACL to the service either via subinacl or gpo a normal user CAN restart services remotely with SC or SVCUTIL or other tools that properly implement the SCM commands. Now there is a possible exeption here. With Windows Server 2003 SP1 Microsoft was sneaky and changed the SCM ACL so that it can be manipulated like the normal service ACLs. Previously this wasn't possible. Not only did they do that, but they locked down the enumeration permissions for services remotely to administrators, though locally a normal user can enumerate. Unfortunately they, to my knowledge, didn't give a tool that I can find to undo this or at least open it up a little and hence a lot of people who implemented basic service monitoring with normal IDs (LUA principal) are now all breaking and simple delegation of service stop/start remotely is broken for a lot of people. I am looking into writing a tool to be able to modify this ACL, I was hoping that MS would announce something though. If you are working with 2K3 SP1, this could be your issue.

Hi joe ;)
 
Endeed my question was rather starting/stopping a services with a command line.
I want a user with non admin privilege to do a net start "service name" remotly from his workstation by a command line.
 
By default, i authorized only Local Admin Group on my server to logon locally. With this configuration, the user could not start remotly the service with his credentials and the following error appeared "AccesDenied" :( .  BUT, when i give the user the privilege to log on locally, the user can start the service !!??
 
The same error appears with my FTP server when users try to connect via ftp.. and for this server, I give logon locally right to "authenticatde users" (tjis only for intranet acces and public access)
 
Cheers,
 
Yann

What specifically do you mean by this? Do you mean launch a console based command or something that runs locally on the server? If so, what for? This could easily be a security risk.

Hi :)
 
I'd like to give to a non-admin-user the right to start a service, launch a command, etc.. on my file server without giving him privilege admin (admin,serverop, backupop right) on my file server nor using the runas command.
 
Is this possible ?
 
Regards,
 
Yann
