During the install, the service account used for the Sync Service is granted additional rights in SQL. To fix this, re-run the installation and enter the new credentials, the installer will reapply permissions. To be clear, you should be using a domain service account whenever possible - you will need this for certain recovery and functionality scenarios.Brad Turner, ILM MVP - Ensynch, Inc - www.identitychaos.com
