You are working with Henry to configure the Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services for your
standalone server deployment. You and Henry have installed SharePoint and report server on a
single server. Henry wants to now configure an account to access the services with write and
execute permissions. You disagree with Henry that a new account is needed.
What account is used for the service account?
A.
Each user that accesses the service account is used
B.
Guest
C.
Network Service
D.
Administrator
Explanation:
In the instance of a single server configuration, no addition account of security configuration for the
account is needed. The network service account has sufficient permissions to support the local
database connection.
Answer option D is incorrect. The administrator account is not used for the security, read/write
access to the SRS and databases.
Answer option B is incorrect. Guest is not a valid account.
Answer option A is incorrect. The users need permission to interact with the data, but the network
service account is needed as the report server is implemented as a web service and a windows
service.
