Hi,

When I use the following command to create SQL Agent Proxy account, I
receive this error:

EXEC master.dbo.xp_sqlagent_proxy_account N'SET',
             N'MYSERVER',
             N'sqlproxy',
             N'password'
Error executing extended stored procedure: Specified user can not login

The server is Windows 2000 and SQL Server 2000 SP3a. I created a local user
on MYSERVER called sqlproxy with password as password and I can login to
this box using terminal services using this credentials with no problem. I
even tried it with my domain account but still the same problem exists.

Where is the problem?

Thanks
