Earlier today, I incorrectly titled this message "denial
of service". I'm resubmitting it with a better subject
line and better problem description.--Molly

Does anyone know what might be causing, and how to fix,
the following?:

Background: Running Win2k, SP4. Troubles began after my
system crashed (blue screen/pointer only) when trying to
install SP4 two months ago. Eventually installed SP4.
Shortly after,I installed Norton firewall, but the
problems below happen even when the firewall is
temporarily disabled.

Problems:
1) I now can't run my remote backup service (Tivoli
v5.1.5.1.5), even manually. I get the following error
message: "ANS5174E A required NT privilege is not held." I
also get this message in connection with some other
applications, although I can still use them. I have
administrative privileges. Using another profile with
admin priv does not help either. Neither does
un/reinstalling.

2) In the event viewer, I am not allowed to see what's in
the security tab. I'm told "A required privilege is not
held by the client".

3) Installation of the Microsoft Security Patch 823559,
always fails.

Any ideas?

Thanks much,
Molly B.
