Systems Management

Hi -


I've configured a program to Run Whether or Not a User is Logged in and to use Software Installation Account ("SoftwareInstAccount") for advanced clients. The Site Setting -> Component Configuration -> Software Distribution -> Advanced Client Network Access Account appears to be configured correctly as DOM\SoftwareInstAccount

I have verified that the software installation account is in AD and all permissions are correct (I can runas /user:DOM\SoftwareInstAccount etc. and do everything I need)

But the problem is that the SMS job does not appear to be actually running in that user context or for some other reason cannot connect to the network share (which I can do if I runas interactively). What gives? Shouldn't the UserContext below in the execmgr.log show as "SoftwareInstAccount"?

How can I force SMS to use the software installation account?

{
AdvertisementId = "AMB20705";
ClientID = "GUID:FEBA9120-0A03-478B-A2D8-C1C0FE81987D";
CommandLine = "\"C:\\WINNT\\system32\\cscript.exe\" getdodat.vbs";
DateTime = "20060615140936.731000+000";
MachineName = "ZZTOWSWM08";
PackageName = "AMA000BB";
ProcessID = 1060;
ProgramName = "Upload_DAT";
SiteCode = "AMB";
ThreadID = 1828;
UserContext = "NT AUTHORITY\\SYSTEM";
WorkingDirectory = "\\\\ZZTOSMS203\\SMSPKGE$\\AMA000BB\\";
};

PS -
I modified the wsh script to return an error to the event log if the mapping operation fails. The script returned:
getdodat.vbs: 2147024843 -- The network path was not found.

PPS - modified again to use ip address (not resolver) to find the share, and now error is "access denied".
