Create Proxy error

  • Hi all

    I am wanting to run a SQL Job under the context of another account. I have created a local windows account on my server (its a cluster) and then created the credential relating to this. After that I went to create a proxy for CmdExec but when I select the credential and try to create it I get a:

    Proxy "server\account" is not a valid Windows user. (.Net SqlClient Data Provider)

    What am I doing wrong?

    Thanks in advance

  • Is it a domain account that you have created on your server?

  • No its a local windows account.

    I am wanting to connect to a share in another domain using the proxy so using a domain account wouldn't work.
