Subject: Weird issue with access denied
Posted: 27 November 2013 at 6:31am
Hello, I have recently been trying to automate ways of doing boring, repetitive tasks myself, as any good programmer would. I work for a community college with a couple of domains of computers, almost all of them using windows 7 32 bit. I have looked into psexec as a way to send the exact same command to many computers. I had great success running it on a test computer in the office by using the local administrator account. All of our computers on campus have an enabled local administrator account in addition to the network logons.

Hello, I have recently been trying to automate ways of doing boring, repetitive tasks myself, as any good programmer would. I work for a community college with a couple of domains of computers, almost all of them using windows 7 32 bit. I have looked into psexec as a way to send the exact same command to many computers. I had great success running it on a test computer in the office by using the local administrator account. All of our computers on campus have an enabled local administrator account in addition to the network logons.
I am having an issue when I try to run a simple copy command on any of the computers in the labs. If I try to use the local administrator, I get "psexec Logon failure: the user has not been granted the requested logon type at this computer.", while if I try to use the administrative network account, the psexec service starts and the connection is made, but then when trying to copy I get 'access denied'. Please excuse the noobishness! It seems to me almost as if I need two sets of credentials with the current setup here - one to be allowed by the network and one to actually move the files on the computer. Has anyone else ever ran into this issue and fixed it (preferably without me having to overhaul the entire way things are done here Image may be NSFW.
