While setting additional privileges on a Win2k webserver  I noticed that
certain privileges (logon as batch job, act as part of o/s, logon locally
and network) were applied to a very strange account -
*S-1-5-21-527237240-162531612-725345543-1008 which is not seen as a user
account. Any ideas folks ?
