Re: Backup Exec service fails on startup

You were right. I run secedit and I can't restart the service till I reset
the password in the service control aplet. Now I can restart the service
without running secedit.

So any suggestion on where to go from here? It must be a local policy
because I don't have this issue on other servers.
