Hello Johannes,

the "logon as batch job" privilege has to be granted via the domain. In the local security policies there is a column named "Efective Rights" (or something like that) which has to be checked. It reflects the privileges granted via the domain.
So you have to grant "logon as batch job" on the domain controller to your OEM user.
Also allow the privilege some time to travel from the domain controller to your database node.

There are some articles on MetaLink which also cover this topic. AFAIR searching for the error message gives some starting points for further research.

Since I'm writing this at home with no W2k running at the moment, some or all names and designations may require slight corrections. ;-)

HTH,
Lothar
