Hi All,
How do you grant permissions to a folder for a specific user if the user happens to be the built in Network Service account? I have tried: <Component Id="AssignDataDirectoryPermissionsGeneric" Guid="5A9D6D2B-CBA0-4E4C-8935-FACA2446256E"> <CreateFolder Directory="DataDirectory"> <util:PermissionEx CreateFile="yes" GenericAll="yes" Read="yes" ReadAttributes="yes" WriteAttributes="yes" User="NetworkService" /> </CreateFolder> </Component> <Component Id="AssignDataDirectoryPermissionsGeneric" Guid="5A9D6D2B-CBA0-4E4C-8935-FACA2446256E"> <CreateFolder Directory="DataDirectory"> <util:PermissionEx CreateFile="yes" GenericAll="yes" Read="yes" ReadAttributes="yes" WriteAttributes="yes" User="[SQLSERVERSERVICEUSER]" /> </CreateFolder> </Component> In this scenario SQLSERVERSERVICEUSER is equal to "NT AUTHORITY\Network Service". <Component Id="AssignDataDirectoryPermissionsGeneric" Guid="5A9D6D2B-CBA0-4E4C-8935-FACA2446256E"> <CreateFolder Directory="DataDirectory"> <util:PermissionEx CreateFile="yes" GenericAll="yes" Read="yes" ReadAttributes="yes" WriteAttributes="yes" Domain="[SQLSERVERSERVICEDOMAIN]" User="[SQLSERVERSERVICEUSER]" /> </CreateFolder> </Component> In this scenario SQLSERVERSERVICEDOMAIN = "NT AUTHORITY" and SQLSERVERSERVICEUSER = "Network Service". <Component Id="AssignDataDirectoryPermissionsGeneric" Guid="5A9D6D2B-CBA0-4E4C-8935-FACA2446256E"> <CreateFolder Directory="DataDirectory"> <util:PermissionEx CreateFile="yes" GenericAll="yes" Read="yes" ReadAttributes="yes" WriteAttributes="yes" Domain="[ComputerName]" User="[SQLSERVERSERVICEUSER]" /> </CreateFolder> </Component> In this scenario SQLSERVERSERVICEUSER = "NT AUTHORITY\Network Service" Rather than just keep trying, does anyone know the answer to this one?
