Hi Arjen, yes, it could. One of the problems with own account is password management - password complexity and expiration as in local/global policies. An account with no password cannot run services. If password has expired, service does not start. I believe write-restricted service (Vista feature, own security identifier per service) is exactly what a security-concerned admin would need in this case, though I did not found time yet to investigate it. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~maria-developers Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~maria-developers More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
