Did you specify a username/password for that check?


No, but that was I think the clue I needed.

When we upgraded, it apparently is running as local service account. We must have had it setup to run as a domain account before the upgrade.

As for why all the other alerts on services on remote boxes weren't giving errors, I suspect either they only check every Nth time or only alert every Nth time. I'll have to check.

So far it looks like changing it to run under a domain account is the solution.

and a boot to the head for me for not catching the obvious. :-)

Subject: [SA-list] Checks fail when run as a service


Since I upgraded to 5.x, several checks of services on other machines
fail when SA runs as a service.

They work fine if I run it as a program in Administrator.

ERR: Getservice status - OpenSCManager -  5-Access is denied.

These are checks that worked previously.

Checks to other machines in the same domain work fine.
So it's not a simple authentication problem. (though may be a  more
complex one :-)
Some boxes are 2000, some are 2003.

Suggestions?  I really need this to run as a service.  (running on
Windows 2000 server box right now.)
