Change Service User Info (NT)

Each Service entry on a Windows NT computer must either use the System Account or have a valid Windows NT account (username/password) associated with it. In the event that the account information used for this service must be changed, the username/password on for the service must also be changed.

On the Change Service User Info form, you have the option to change the service username, the service password or both.

The Change Service User Info form contains the following:

Service Name: Enter the service name as it appears in the services Control Panel.

Change Service User Name check box: If the username for the service must be changed, select this box and enter a new username for the service. Note: This should not be the name of a group. If you enter the name of a group in the box, the program will quite happily make the change for you, but it is a pretty good bet the service will not work properly.

Change Service Password check box: If the password for the service must be changed, select this box and enter the new password for the service in each of the following boxes. Note: passwords are case sensitive.

Attempting to change service user information for a service that does not exist on the remote computer will not result in any error, the attempt will simply be ignored.
