SSP accounts
The following table describes the accounts that are used to set up and configure an SSP. Plan one set of SSP accounts for each SSP that you plan to implement.
SSP application pool account
SSP administration site application pool account. This account is used to run the application pool for the Web Application that hosts the SSP administration site.
SSP service account
Used by the following:
. SSP Web services for inter-server communication
. Application pool identity of the application pool that is associated with the virtual directory associated with a given SSP
Default content access account
The default account used within a specific SSP to crawl content, unless a different authentication method is specified by a crawl rule for a URL or URL pattern.
------
Office SharePoint Server Search Service account
Used as the service account for the Office SharePoint Server Search service. There is only one instance of this service and it is used by all SSPs to write content index files to the index location on index servers and to propagate the searchable index to all query servers in a Microsoft. Office SharePoint Server 2007 farm.
Content access account
A specific account that is configured to access a content source. This account is optional and is specified when you create a new crawl rule. For example, content sources that are external to Office SharePoint Server 2007 (such as a file share) might require a different access account.
Profile import default access account
Used to:
. Connect to a directory service, such as the Active Directory directory service, a Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) directory, a Business Data Catalog application, or other directory source.
. Import profile data from a directory service.
If no account is specified, the default content access account is used. If the default content access account does not have read access to the directory or directories that you want to import data from, plan to use a different account. You can plan up to one account per directory connection.
Excel Services unattended service account
The account that Excel Calculation Services uses to connect to external data sources that require a non-Windows user name and password string for authentication. If this account is not configured, Excel Services will not attempt to connect to these types of data sources. Although the account credentials are used to connect to non-Windows data sources, the account must be a member of the domain in order for Excel Calculation Services to use it.
