Run command with a Managed Service Account?

  • 772

I've just granted permissions for a MSA (Managed Service Account) to some resources.

Can I verify it works, by running a cmd.exe process with the credentials of the MSA account, and check I have the proper permissions?

    Possible with Sysinternals' PsExec Tool, with a blank password.

    Command example:

    PsExec.exe -u domain\MsaAccount$ cmd.exe

  2. Skip the password prompt by substituting ~ for the password in powershell.

    ./psexec -i -u domain\gMSA$ -p ~ notepad.exe
