Situation

zac commands fail for non root users. For example, zac ref fails even though the ZENworks icon can be refreshed by that user.

ERROR:

Not enough privileges to perform the operation .

Resolution

Use zac user-edit to assign rights to the users. This can be done per user or for all users, manually or via a bundle that is set to run as root (and root user must launch it):

Per user:

zac ue username +Configure

All users:

/opt/novell/zenworks/bin/zac ue '*' +Configure

Additional Information

A bundle can be made to run this automatically. The action must run as root and launch automatically to "push" the action.
