Since someone would have to have to be on the server to execute that command, it should be relatively safe providing that your server itself is secure.

The last parameter sets it up a as an Admin. Nate. Go to a command line, and CD to the install directory. Look for a binary called arcache When you get to it, type the following: arcache -Ua -eTEMP999 -lw 1 -n "TEMPADMIN"-p"" -s <servername> -g "1;" Then, log into the server with a login of TEMPADMIN, no password Nathan Aker ITSM Solution Architect McAfee, Inc.

Installed AR System Application Software 7.6.04 SP2 on Windows 2008 server (we are using Oracle 11gR2). After install, I logged on using Demo, then went to the User Form and added my account and then changed the Demo Account from Fixed to Read (so I could add 2 other users). Logged out and logged in as myself and DOH! I didn't add administrator permissions on my account so I don't have admin privileges. Logged out and then back in as Demo and I guess when I changed the license from fixed to Read it took out the Admin Privilege? I have some info from the ARSlist archives to use arcache to add a fixed license back to demo, but will it give it the admin priv's back?
