To my knowledge, it will affect the scheduler, since both the backup GUI and
the scheduler are using the same password resource in the registry. The only
way would be removing the NT GUI and using the WEB Client for
backup/restore. There you can set client access rights without affecting the
scheduler.

Any other ideas?
