I am developing an application that is using WebSphere MQ v6.0. WebSphere MQ is currently not working due to the following issue:

• WebSphere MQ service runs under local user "MUSR_MQADMIN" in the local group "mqm"
• I attempt to use the service using my own account, BIZ\noahz
• MUSR_MQADMIN needs to check if BIZ\noahz is in local group "mqm"
• MUSR_MQADMIN does not have permission to read the Active Directory group membership of BIZ\noahz
• The following error appears in the MQ log file:

----- amqzfubn.c : 3582 -------------------------------------------------------

1/31/2011 18:51:32 - Process(704.1105) User(MUSR_MQADMIN) Program(amqzlaa0.exe) AMQ8079: Access was denied when attempting to retrieve group membership information for user 'noahz@biz'.

EXPLANATION: WebSphere MQ, running with the authority of user 'musr_mqadmin@noahz-biz', was unable to retrieve group membership information for the specified user. ACTION: Ensure Active Directory access permissions allow user 'musr_mqadmin@noahz-biz' to read group memberships for user 'noahz@biz'. To retrieve group membership information for a domain user, MQ must run with the authority of a domain user.

I found more information is here on IBM's web site: http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/wmqv7/v7r0/index.jsp?topic=/com.ibm.mq.amqtac.doc/wq10830_.htm

I don't have Active Directory admin rights for my Windows machine, so my question is:

Is there anything else I can do to resolve (or work-around) this issue and get WebSphere MQ working for me again? For example, can I disable this security check in WebSphere MQ?
