contents Consider a smooth action $\mathbf G\times M \rightarrow M$ of a compact connected Lie group $\mathbf G$ on a connected manifold $M$. Assume the existence of a point of $M$ whose isotropy group has a single element (free point). Then we prove that there exist two complete vector field $X,X_1$ such that their group of automorphisms equals $\mathbf G$ regarded as a group of diffeomorphisms of $M$ (the existence of a free point implies that the action of $\mathbf G$ is effective). Moreover, some examples of effective actions with no free point where this result fails are exhibited.
