Is your OCS Front-End server collocated on a Domain Controller? That is not supported!

Does your RTCService account have "Logon As Batch Job" and "Logon as a Service" rights
Check your local group policy setting / User Rights Assignments

When I install I don't assign any right for RTCService account, maybe the user don't have "Logon As Batch Job" and "Logon as a Service" rights. Thank you so much for your supportWednesday, October 22, 2008 3:30 AM -
At install time these rights are granted automatically
But you might have some domain policies overwriting the local policies!

Also make sure that you've allowed the password to never expire on the account. This appears to be a standard authentication failure upon the service starting.

I think username format and domain for the OCS services is correct (username is RTCService@domain.com or Domain\RTCService). Account have password never expire. And I can manual start service (I only press "Start" in Autoministrative Tools\Services)Monday, November 3, 2008 2:29 AM -
I can resolve the problem, It's not good solution but I can't find a solution better.
I create a *.bat file with content
"timeout 150
net start RtcSrv
net start RtcavMcu
net start RtcImMcu
net start RtcDataMcu"
I place *.bat file in StartUp. Each time windows boot, it run *.bat file to start OCS Services and OCS Services can "auto start"
