SERVACCT.EXE : Service Account Password Utility : by Steven Wettberg Usage:SERVACCT \[\\SERVER\] \[SERVICE\] \[DOMAIN\USER\] \[PASSWORD\] \[DOMAIN\] \[/RESTART\] \[\\SERVER\] = UNC Path of the Server to configure \[SERVICE\] = Service to configure \[DOMAIN\USER\] = User context for the service \[PASSWORD\] = Password for the above account \[DOMAIN\] = Windows NT domain of the target server \[/RESTART\] = Stops & restarts the target service SERVACCT changes the target service so that the service starts under the context of the userid & password specified on the command line. The program will grant the specified userid the "Log on as a Service" right if it has not been previously granted. Note: SERVICE is NOT the display name, use the string that would be used if you were issuing a NET STOP command. The /Restart parameter may be used to stop and start the service after the change, this is an optional parameter. If the restart parameter is not used you must manually stop & start the service to actually use the new logon information. If the service is already stopped when this program is run the service will not be started, this is by design. Example: SERVACCT \\SERVER Schedule MyDomain\Userid Password MyDomain /RestartNOTE: The SERVICE is the registry key at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services. If you open a CMD.EXE window and type net start, you can check the DisplayName Value Name at a key to verify you have identified the correct key.
JSI Example:
SERVACCT \\JSI009 MyService JSIINC\SVCAcct ThePassword JSIINC
Changed the startup information for the MyService service on \\JSI009
Granted JSIINC\SVCAcct the "Log on as a Service Right" on \\JSI009
