I need to run a batch file which stops a particular Win2K Service, and then
restarts it.

It works fine for some of our users, but others are coming up against
security issues.

Is there a setting that I can change, to allow the user to be able to
start/stop services. To let you understand, the user won't actually be
doing this themselves, merely running a batch file that contains the
relevant commands.


TIA

Hello,

Take a look at this article, it talks about using Runas in a batch file to
stop/start services:

RunAs Service ------ Allows you to run specific tools and programs with
different permissions than your current logon provides.
It is good practice for administrators to use an account with restrictive
permissions to perform routine, non-administrative tasks, and to use an
account with broader permissions only when performing specific
administrative tasks. To accomplish this without logging off and back on,
log on with a regular user account and use the runas command to run the
tools that require the broader permissions.
