If I change this password and move services or applications that must
be started into the start on boot mode.(Right now after the server
reboots the enterprise admin account is used to login and start some
applications, we check some settings, then we lock the console).
These services and applications after being placed to start on boot
up should start after the server reboots without the need for a login.
Right? I guess I would use the new enterprise admin username and
password to set these applications and services to run.
If this is the case an an employee, like an auditor needs to check
some of the services to do reports, can he use a lower level
administrator(Like Account Operator or Domain Admin to check open some
of these the services and their accompanied application to check some
settings?
