Start and Stop Services Remotely Under Non-Administrative User Alfred Rapozo 04-26-2006

 Hi,

I've been wanting to have a non-administrative user stop and start some
custom services on Windows 2000 and 2003 Server machines. I can give
them access locally without them being member of the administrators
group, but not remotely, what are the necessary permissions for that?

Alfred.

 What kind of remote access. In other words, Log on over the network
user right is not covering their remote authenticated access?

Config a Group Policy for the server or servers and use the "Services"
branch of the computer account group policy. In here you can assign
explicit permissions for any user to stop, paus, restart start etc each
individual service. A small note, if its a custom/non-standard service
you will have to create the policy from the machine with that service
in order to see it.(i think). Anyhow, you can then use the resource
kit tools "netsvc.exe" to run a batch or command line remotely to stop,
start, query the specific service.

Hope it helps!

That's what i do right now, but they have to be logged on locally for
the permissions to work. I would like them to be able to connect
remotely using the Services mmc console and start and stop the services.
