'A required privilege is not held by the client' when re-initalization

Hi all,
the sys admin has changed the service a/c to another admin. id. But now, i can't start the replication jobs even re-created the publication and subscription with the new admin. id. Any advise? Thanks in advance!

'Executed as user: test.com\admin. A required privilege is not held by the client. The step failed.'

Hi Stephaine,

How do your admin change the service account? He/she might use Windows Service Control Manager to change account. To solve the issue, please refer to this KB article (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/911305/en-us).

Thanks,

Peng

|||an issue i found was that sql server agent and ssis had been changed to not use the local system account. this caused me to continually get the dreaded --> "A required privilege is not held by the client" error. i fought with it all afternoon and eventually updated the services to use the local system account and it worked. perhaps this will save some other as much time as i wasted.
