Hi,

What do you specify for account name and password for various services (when installing SQL Server 2008). The list of services is: SQL Server Agent, SQL Server Database Engine, SQL Server Analysis Services, etc. Is it a good idea to specify one/same account for all and have it as Windows Authentication?

TIA

UPDATE:. The question should be more specific (now that I read more about this). Which services should be set to Network Service and which are to Local Service or it does not really matter?
