Hi,

i'm trying to configure a sharepoint admin account. When i run it as a
domain account, everything works find. When the user is local admin on all
sps servers and has read rights on the sql server, stsadm does not work
correctly. ie. i cannot install webparts (critical error: the webpart cannot
be found in the configuration database) or -o enumsites crashes (the command
cannot be completed)..

we are running sps in the following infrastructure:
- 2 Frontend Webservers
- 1 Server for Indexing and Jobs
- 1 SQL Cluster

Running the sharepoint account as domain account is not an option as
external people need to uses this account..

Any suggestions?

Thanks and regards
Karsten Grombach
