Service Account Updates

Applies To: Windows Server 2008

Active Directory Lightweight Directory Services (AD LDS) provides services using the security credentials of a user account. A user account that a service uses is commonly known as a service account. If the service account that AD LDS uses is changed, the AD LDS instance using that account detects the change and warns the administrator that additional configuration steps may be required.
