audit sam solarwinds of user logins

Have a user that states that they can no longer add/remove nodes or mgmt nodes - they have admin privilege's so I dont see what I'm missing and seeing if there is a way to produce a report to show what permissions an individual has please? Also is there a way to produce a report of log in and historical changes to users account please?

User rights are pretty well displayed in the Manage Accounts screen.

However, some things to know about accounts. An individual account settings will over-ride a Window Group account and in the Windows Group accounts if a user is a member of more than one Group then they will receive whatever the first match is top down in the list off all Group Accounts. So the order in which you put the Group Accounts matters. The upper right of your main screen should show what the user is signed is as, that usually helps pinpoint what group they are getting assigned at login. Hope this helps.

I agree with bobmarley, with the following two warnings. Having a user in more than one windows group is still a bad idea. I have seen things still get wonky for that person after they login. It is best to avoid that mess. Second, if you have account limitations setup - that could block them from interacting with nodes that have the limitation applied. These do not sound like your situation though. Its more likely that a permission needs to be updated - per bobmarley's post above.
