When running hudson directly from the command prompt the build succeeds. I then added the user to the Administrators group and re-tried the build using the service and the build suceeded. I removed the Administrators group and the build then failed.
Obviously from the run with least privilledges does anyone know what privs the user needs? "Enable Interaction with Desktop" is only available when the service is running under the System account.
