Scheduled Tasks - Error 0x80070569: Logon failure

I was wondering why some scheduled tasks has not sent notification emails this morning.  I connected to my remote server and checked the scheduled tasks services log.  It has several entries similar to this:
"Daily-Powershell-Get-BackupFileCount.job" (powershell.exe) 12/8/2010 12:15:00 AM ** ERROR ** The attempt to log on to the account associated with the task failed, therefore, the task did not run. The specific error is: 0x80070569: Logon failure: the user has not been granted the requested logon type at this computer. Verify that the task's Run-as name and password are valid and try again.
A quick Google search turned up this link:

Their suggestion was:
To fix the problem, grant the local Administrators group the Right to log on as a batch job. e.g.: go to Administrative tool > Local security policy > Local Policies > User Rights Assignment > Logon as a batch job > Add.
NOTE: This behavior occurs even if you are logged on to the Domain Controller as an administrator.
After our system admin on that domain made the policy change I ran a quick gpupdate /force and it took care of the issue.
