We have several applications that need to run with different rights.
For example, we have an application that MUST be installed as an elevated user so we are using the SCCM system account however after the application installs depending on the region the user's machine is in will decide which specific registry keys it will get. Also, since this application requires requires the user to write to a HKLM key we have granted the user access to do that for this one registry key. I have a script that will first do the installation (running an msi calling an mst) then call a vbscript to grant access to the required key (runs with system account).
I have a second script that will get the logged on user's ID number (last five characters) and populate a hostname key within the HKLM we granted permission too then look at the user's machine name to determine what region the machine resides in so the correct server IP addresses are written to the HKLM key (runs as the logged on user).
We currently use Altiris that allows a "Job" to contain multiple tasks and the tasks can run with different accounts (system account, logged on user, specific account).
Is there a way to do this ALL within one task/job within SCCM?
