I had a problem similar to this. Try setting the checkpoint service to start under the admin account not the system account. This cleared up all of my issues.

Question for you though-- with this in mind, does the service need to be able to interact with the desktop for this to work? -----Original Message----- From: David Gillett [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, May 29, 2002 8:24 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [FW-1] Scheduled fw logswitch no workie-- any ideas? :) 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.
