Resolution

The 'aexnsclient' service should run under SYSTEM account, it executes some code that requires SYSTEM privileges.

Now, about NS AppID account or if ACC (Agent Connectivity Credentials) is used, this account does not have to belong to any group, it is used for authentication on the remote machine (PS/TS/NS) only, it is never impersonated locally.
