There was a Microsoft SMS 2.0 Security whitepaper that covered this... while
it's easier to use and deploy SMS with an account with domain admin rights,
it is possible to make it work without being a Domain Admin. However, on
each server/client you would need to allow the SMS 2.0 service account to
have local administrator rights.
