I have SCCM 2012 SP1,  I am installing WSUS & SUP.  So, for to use SUP,  the prerequite is to install WSUS.  When I install WSUS, and try to connect to the same remote 2012 SQL server that SCCM has instance on,  

I get the following error:

Your account has not right to create the sus database, make sure your account has db create rights on the sql.

Is the user that I am logged onto the WSUS server the user that needs the permissions to create the database on the remote SQL server?
