URGENT: sc sdset myservice - now I locked myself out ... "SC OpenS

[Guest Didier]

Hello,

 

I tried to change a services DACL on Windows 2003 .... now I locked myself

out of the service because the DACL was reset.

 

Now when I use: "sc sdshow tomcatform" I get the following output:

[sC] OpenService FAILED 5:

Access is denied.

 

I'm not able able to start stop the service as I get "access denied" ...

 

Whatever I try I'm not able to reset the DACL to the default as I keep

getting "access denied" messages. I tried to do the following without success:

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/926639/?sd=RMVP&fr=1

 

Can someone tell me how can I restore the default DACL on this service?

 

Thank you very much!!!!

Didier

Is it a secret?

Ok course not ... ;-) sorry!

 

I tried so many sc combinations and I was so in hurry that I didn't noticed

where the real problem was. I was logged on via rdp on the server and I was

not able to get an interactive cmd via the remote desktop client.

When I logged on to the physical console and used "at XX:XX /interactive

cmd" it worked and finally I was able to fix it with the "sc sdset ..."

commands.

Ah, sometimes I, too, have had to go to the console to do something

direct on the host. I've even had to do that when a particular key

combo won't work remotely (i.e., I had to use the console's keyboard,

like for a Sun host).
