Yes you should do that with NT Integrated security if the account being
used on the running machine is established on SQL 2005 server and SQL 2005
express.

However, most would just use a generic user-id and psw for the logins one
for Server and one for Express and make two entries in AppSettings for
connections strings.

The recommend practice is to use Windows Auth from the service to SQL
Server. It's easier to configure, less maintentance, and much more secure.
In general, you should not use SQL Auth for much of anything these days.

There would be 2 connection strings in the AppConfig, one for each DB. Each
of these connection strings is marked to use Integrated Authentication.
