Connect As to run a script

Hi,
I have ahm running as a service using the local system credentials. If I want to do a UNC test, I can specify connect as, and use alternate credentials that are valid.

I want to run an external script with some WMI tests in it, but I want to specify the credentials it will run under. Is this possible?

Thanks

Nick SP

I think you should use "Log on as" option located on Service page in the Options dialog.

So run the AHM service under a user account rather than the local system account?
Wont this affect the GUI like it says in the help manual?

No, start HostMonitor under local system account (as described in manual) AND provide user account on Service page in the HOSTMONITOR's Options dialog (as described in the same manual).
