Cannot get proxy account to work.

For some reason I cannot get a job to run under a different account other
than the SQL Agent. What I have done is the following.
1)Created a credential called operations that has the domain\user format
with its password. The user used is the SA of the sql server.
2)I created a proxy that is linked to this credential. In this Proxy I have
set it up to run all subsystems. I have also linked two users to this proxy.
3)I changed the job owner to be a user that will use the proxy
4)I changed each job step to run as the proxy created.
When I run the job, the job instantly fails. I keep getting the following
error.
Executed as user: DOMAIN\user. The process could not be created for step 1
of job 0x34E60C35C09E184EA8FD2E9E223821E2 (reason: A required privilege is
not held by the client). The step failed.
At one time this worked great. I believe this broke because of an update
that was applied.
I have recreated the credential and the proxy several times and I cannot see
what I am doing wrong.
Can anyone help me.Hi Chris, please take a look at this tip on what to take care of when running
a SQL Server Agent job using a proxy account:

Agent Service account or the proxy account? Should I apply it to both?
Thanks again.

for both as well.

I have done what you suggested. However I still have the same problem. I
did all the items on that list, short of rebooting the server. Any other
ideas?
