OK. An OU or Organizational Unit is an Active Directory container for the purpose of
logically segmenting a domain for the purpose of divisions/geography [East/West,
Sales/Marketing, etc], delegating authority, or applying unique Group Policy. Anyhow
you could create one for your server, move the server into it, create and configure a
Group Policy for it that would accomplish your need. First go to Active Directory
Users and Computers management console and expand the domain. Right click the domain
and select new/Organizational Unit. Name it something appropriate. Then right click
you new OU and select properties/Group Policy/new. You will see "new Group Policy
Object" appear. Name it something appropriate and then select the new Group
Policy/edit. Then go to computer configuration/Windows settings/security
settings/local policies/user rights assignments. Find the setting you are looking for
"log on as batch job" and add the account that you want to have that right - do not
browse for it, just type it in and hit OK for both boxes and the account should then
appear. Now move your server into that OU. Right click the server and select move [I
am assuming this is not a domain controller]. The on the domain controller run
secedit /refreshpolicy machine_policy /enforce. If a reboot of it is not too
difficult for the domain controller do that also. After that do the same on your IIS
server - secedit /refreshpolicy machine_policy /enforce and reboot if possible. Then
check your Local Security Policy settings again and the "log on as batch job" for
that account should show as effective setting. --- Steve
