    I am trying to set up a regular SQL login which is NOT a
    sysadmin with the ability to run xp_cmdshell. It's not
    the best idea, but I have no choice. I granted it
    execute permissions on the proc and used
    xp_sqlagent_proxy_account to point to a login which is a
    local admin on the server. Whenever I try to execute
    xp_cmdshell under that account, I get the error :

    Msg 50001, Level 1, State 50001
    xpsql.cpp: Error 87 from GetProxyAccount on line 604

    A search of KB and a few of these newsgroups turned up
    nothing. The version number of SQL Server is 08.00.0818
    (sp3 + security update).
