The Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Setup program creates a local Windows group for each service that you install. The SQL Server 2005 Setup program adds the service account for each service to its respective group. For a SQL Server failover cluster installation, Windows domain groups are used in the same manner. These domain groups must be created by a domain administrator before you run the SQL Server 2005 Setup program. All the Windows NT rights and permissions that are required by a specific service are added by the system access control list (SACL) to each Windows group. The domain administrator does not grant permissions directly to the service account.
