How do I assign 'logon as service' privilege on Vista Home / Home Premium? (CreateProcessAsUser())
in [Win32 Kernel]

From: root on 20 May 2007 12:03 I am a developer of proprietrary run distribution system that is used for high end HPC applications in the automotive industry. We have a few customers now using Windows Vista Home Premium, which lacks the local security policy editor tool. In the past, we have recommended that this privilege be assigned in the domain security policy, with local policy as a fallback for single host installs. How can I either assign the 'logon as service' privilege programatically, or add this privilege using supplied tools? Any help much appreciated, as the only alternative these customers at present, seems to be an OS upgrade to either Linux, or a more expensive Vista flavour (which is highly undesirable for small numbers of cheap compute nodes that do not need to be domain members), or for individual laptops.
From: Ivan Brugiolo [MSFT] on 20 May 2007 15:57 secpol.msc should be there in your installation, if you prefer GUI. secedit.exe should be your command-line tool. LsaAddAccountRights would be the API way of doing things. -- -- This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.
