"security subsysem" on NT with the AT program

Hello everybody, I have the following probleme with Informix 7.31.TC2, running on NT 4.0 SP5: I am logged Adminisrator When I lauch via an AT task a script with the informix environment (the content of setenv.cmd), all informix command (dbaccess, onstat, dbexport) return this error: "Could not initialize the security subsystem. Please ensure that this account has the necessary privileges" My Informix and Administrator accounts have their Setnet32 params setted correctly. (Ilogin32 logs fine) However, during the execution of the script via AT, the variable USERNAME = SYSTEM. How setting the correct INFORMIX security environment for the user SYSTEM ? Any idea ? Thank you for your answer Jean-Brice Albertus jb.albertus@imsii.fr

You can change the Scheduler service to run as Administrator (or another user). You cannot log in as SYSTEM - it is a special user for services. The SYSTEM user gets its environment variables from the System Environment Variables only and loads its registry hive from HKEY_USERS\\.DEFAULT. To run the Scheduler as another user, go into the Control Panel and choose Services, find the Scheduler service and click on it, then click on the Startup button. Instead of running it as the System Account, you can choose another user (click on the "..." button) and enter that user's password twice and click OK. Then stop and start the service for it to take effect. Note - if the selected user's password expires or changes, the scheduler service will not start the next time you reboot. Ideally, you should create a new user for the scheduler service and specify that the user's password does not expire and cannot change. Then make sure that user is set up properly to access the Informix database, then change the Scheduler service to run as that user.
