| Now that I have your attention. I am trying to set up a Sql Agent Proxy Account and keep getting this error:"Unable to set the SQL Agent Proxy account because of the reason below.'error executing extended stored procedure: Specified user cannot login.'"The machine is stand alone. "MACHINEA"The user account is part of the NT administrator group. "SQLPROXY"The user is NT authenticated in MSSQL and is a sysadmin.EXEC master.dbo.xp_sqlagent_proxy_account 'SET', 'machineA', 'sqlproxy', 'proxypwd'I have tried MSDN, KNowledge Base, and Primer Support. Nothing!!Any help would be appreciated. |

Maybe it doesn't like you Scott You've tried everything else.How about:EXEC master.dbo.xp_sqlagent_proxy_account N'SET', N'MACHINEA', N'sqlproxy', N'proxypwd' That's just a syntax thing, probably won't matter. Are you sure that the domain, user, and password are all the right case? I know that at least one of them is case sensitive.Are you running the latest service pack (which version of SQL Server are you running)? Have you tried setting up SQL Server, SQL Agent, and the proxy account to run under the same account? If there is a mismatch between the 3, that could be the problem (I'm guessing based on the Books Online entry, I haven't tried it)Did you call the support line? What did they tell you? If you haven't called them yet you should do that, and if they can't help, well, you're SOL then. |

| After many painfull days I have figured it out.The NT account needs these permissions:Act as part of the operating system. Increase quotas. replace process level token. Log on as a batch job. Search on PRB: Error 1314 in the knowledge based. |
