Re: [FW-1] Scheduled fw logswitch no workie-- any ideas? :)

[David Gillett <gillettdavid@FW1-NOSPAMFHDA.EDU>]

  Are you trying to switch out the log data to/on a shared folder?

  Part of what changed in the NT schedule service, somewhere around SP5/6,
is that it now runs only as the local SYSTEM account, and can no longer run
as a user with domain privileges.  This has usually been the issue when I've
seen stuff work when done manually, but fail when scheduled.
