Ok, here's a cute one:

Installed BrightStor on serveral servers, each as an stand alone since several were in different NT Domains. Network changes, so I start adding servers to one domain, so I can manage them from one server console.

I setup an NT admin account to use instead of caroot on all of the servers, and make it equivalent to caroot, and have full access to the shares I wanted to backup. I made sure I had all the passwords for caroot on each of the servers recorded and validated.

As the final step, I try to create a new user login on the primary server for the EB domain, while logged in as caroot, and it tells me "you do not have permission to do this"

The only command the domain server will accept is >ca_auth -user validate caroot <password>. I posted to CA's forums 5 days ago, but it looks like no one's minding the shop.

Does anyone know if once the primary server gets some additional servers added to it's domain, that it locks down the caroot account as a security measure and won't allow any administrative commands ?
