Most of our connections to SQL are through SQL Logins and management want to change to NT Logins which is good as it is easy to implement as i can assign developers to NT Logins.

In active Directory the web guy tells me in order for web pages to work the AD account has to be a service account and then you have groups and assign the people to the group...the group is then assigned to the service account.

In SQL I be using the Service Account ...

Is that correct....i use Service Account rather than the Group in SQL

Thanks

You need create sql login for whatever windows account that needs sql access. If app connects to sql with service account, that's what you need.
