We normally install the TSM Scheduler on all our machines using the default
SYSTEM account.

For a Win2K Pro machine, is there any disadvantage/fallout to using the
person's regular network logon account, instead of the SYSTEM account?
(assuming it is a member of the local ADMINISTRATORs group).

It looks like this is what we will HAVE to do to back up files encrypted
with the Windows 2000 File Encryption.

If you use a network logon account to run the scheduler, what happens if the
password expires?  It is toast?
