SYMPTOMS
Users logged on to a Microsoft Systems Management Server site residing in a trusted domain cannot use software programs that are being metered online in an account domain group or to single users even though the users have been assigned permission. When the program is started, the following error message is displayed:
CAUSE
The License Metering Server is capable of retrieving user groups from multiple domains, but it does not retain the domain of origin and is unable to determine group membership from the trusted domain. Therefore, group checks and requests for permission to run group-assigned programs fail.
When you inspect \Ms\Sms\Logs\Liccli.Log, the following message is displayed:
Getting groups for the user "LOWRIGHTS"
OK (0 groups)
When you request an online metered version of Registry Editor, the following message is displayed:
Requesting use of "REGEDT32.exe", version: "4.00",lang:0x9,0x4 ...
ACCESS DENIED
