It is not necessary to limit the access that the Administrator service account or override account has over the managed domain.  The section in Chapter 3 of the Installation Guide entitled 'Limiting Service Account Access' states the minimum requirements the service account must have in order to perform its functions in DRA.  Therefore, if you wish to reduce the powers that the service account has, this section of the Installation Guide will tell you the minimum powers that the service account needs and why it needs them.  The topics covered are listed below:

  • Permissions
  • Replication
  • Group membership
  • Exchange 5.5
  • Exchange 2000
  • FSA Functions
