In a nutshell...you should change the account settings within Enterprise Manager...
1. Select the server's Properties sheet within Enterprise Manager. 2. Switch to the Security tab. In the Startup Service Account box, make the appropriate account selection, either System Account or This Account. NOTE : If you want to change the account to a domain user account, you must first create a SQL Server service account with administrator priveleges and be logged in as the account that you're changing SQL Server to run under (i.e., domain\user_account). If you're not logged in as the domain user you're setting the account to, you'll receive the following error message: "A required privilege is not held by the client." If you are running Full-Text Search, do not change the services account using the Control Panel's Services applet. Using this applet to change the account may cause Full-Text Search to stop functioning. You will not be able to rebuild or repopulate the index until you set the account as described above. When the account is successfully changed, rebuild the index and Full-Text Search should function properly <sic/> -----Original Message----- From: Justin [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 28 October 2003 14:13 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [ cf-dev ] OT SQL Server Question My questions .. 1) What reg settings do I need give the acount permissions 2) What directories does the account need access to? 3) Any other issues??? Changing the account via service panel is easy, just trying to predict any oddness as a result.

Via Windows? Its fairly straight forward, much the same way it is for any other application via the Services Panel. -----Original Message----- From: Justin MacCarthy [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 28 October 2003 13:54 To: Cfuk Subject: [ cf-dev ] OT SQL Server Question Can anyone point me in the direction of a article on running MS SQL as another user account?
