Assigning a User Account to the TLC Manager Service

To authenticate with a Windows Log Source, a Manager uses the credentials defined in the Log Source's Monitored Asset (Working with Monitored Assets). If authentication fails, TLC then attempts to authenticate with the credentials of the TLC Manager service. 

To assign a user account as the account for the TLC Manager service:

1. On the TLC Manager host system, select Start > Programs > Tripwire Log Center > Manager.
2. In the side bar of the TLC Manager Interface, select Service Settings.
3. Select Domain user account and enter the Username of the user account.

Tips 

If the account belongs to a domain, include the domain name.

The user account must have the authority to run services and access the certificate folder (typically, the Crypto folder).
4. Enter and confirm the Password for the account.
5. Click Apply Settings.
6. In the Status page of the TLC Manager Interface (see Table 73), click Stop.
7. In the button bar, clickSaveSave.
8. In the Status page, click Start.
