Let me start with questions:<br />
Why would you need an account x to deploy software? A service account, yes, that's a common thing, but not for deploying.<br />
Use GPOs to deploy your software and setup service accounts an deployed services as shown here: <a href="http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd548356(v=ws.10).aspx" rel="ugc">http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd548356(v=ws.10).aspx</a><br />
Needs win7 as clientand 2008 R2 server as DC at least.

Hi Experts,<br />
<br />
how to setup a service account to deploy software ?<br />
I have some software for all my clients and this needs to be installed.<br />
This is done with the local admin.<br />
But there is also a service and this need to be started with a service account.<br />
This should be better than a normal user right ?<br />
<br />
can you show me how to setup this service account with admin rights?<br />
And is there a way to deploy also the service settings ?
