    Hello,

    MBSA does say it is a problem on a machine which has no SQL Server,
    but MSDE installed: "To secure your database, you should only allow
    members of the sysadmin role to execute CmdExec and ActiveScripting
    job steps."

    Does anyone have any idea how to correct this problem?
    MBSA only has a solution for MS SQL Server, but the MSDE does not
    have an Enterprise Manager, and therefore the solution does not work.

    I did already google for "Restricting CmdExec Rights to Sysadmin",
    but got only 4 hits, none of them for the MSDE.
