[THIN] Re: Change the login to the Data Store

That is correct, you can copy and modify the exist dsn file. If anything,
you should be able to use the existing (without copying) mf20.dsn file if
the database/database server name hasn't changed.

Subject: [THIN] Change the login to the Data Store

I have a requirement to change the login to the Data Store from the Domain
Administrator account to a Service Account. The Farm is PS 4.6, database is
SQL 2000.

A couple of questions on this:

1. Apart from DBO, what other permissions on the database will the Service
Account need?

2. How do I create the new DSN file? Can I copy the existing one and modify
that? I understand that I would then use dsmaint config /user:username
/pwd:password /dsn:dsnfilename

Any advice much appreciated!
