Hi Jason,
I had this in one of the article, it may be useful you ya...
The Domain User Account is much like the Local User Account in that an
administrator defines what permissions it has to the machine for SQL Server.
It doesn't have to be part of the local Administrator group, just like the
Local User Account. Both require the following permissions:
· Ability to log on as a service
· Ability to access and change the MSSQL directory
· Ability to access and change applicable .mdf, .ndf, and .ldf files
· Ability to read and write to certain registry keys (see Books Online for
the list)
Microsoft recommends a Domain User Account that is part of the local
Administrators group.
