it shows that for some reason the "ID" of the person isn't converted to the username. I'll have to check why (based on the files you send me)

So, having enabled that, I've done two further tests. Note - this is on a Windows 2003 server, with a check for an NT service that works whether I use the in-check userid or the centralised person ID, and also two Perfmon checks which work with the in-check ID, but not with the person ID. First, I used the in-check userid, but with a deliberately wrong password. That showed up in the event log as: Reason: Unknown user name or bad password Username: <name blanked for security> Domain: <domain blanked for security> Then I used the SA person ID. That showed up slightly differently in the event log: Reason: Unknown user name or bad password Username: (PID=57) Domain: I have no idea what that tells us!

The disabling of the password field will be in build 2365 (and more recent).

I would suspect the syntax of the NTUserid I set in the person spec, except that it *does* seem to be working on some checks! Very strange.

I've found a strange problem with the new user management stuff. It's working fine with most of the checks I've changed so far, but one (a perfmon memory check) only seems to work if I set the username within the check (as before). If I use the centrally set user (which is the same user for all checks like this), it gives me an access denied error. Here's the log extract - first time (fail) using the central person, second time (success) using user set in check: Monday, March 14, 2011 12:05:08 PM GBCN-AP03 Mem Monday, March 14, 2011 12:05:08 PM GBCN-AP03 Perfmon (Memory,% Committed Bytes In Use,) gave errorAccess is denied.
