    Question SQL2005 Standalone to AD

    Hi,

    I want to change a W2K3/SQL2005 server from standalone to be a member server of an existing Active Directory without breaking anything.

    I can't seem to find any KB article for "best practise" or the like.

    Any pointers to avoid issues with the Database continuing to function once added to AD would be appreciated.

    It shouldn't break anything if you don't change sql service account nor sql logins.

    Thanks for your response.

    It does currently have a few Windows Accounts in the DB Security (along with DB Accounts)....so also wanted to make sure they would remain intact with the same SSID.
