When installing WebBrix, you should be logged into the PC as a local Administrator. In other words, a user that is a member of the local Administrators group.
During the installation of WebBrix you'll be prompted to enter the username and password for the user who's authority the needed services will run under. This user also needs to be a local administrator. The machine you're installing WebBrix on can fall into one of two categories. The PC can either be part of domain or part of a workgroup. There are some "best practice" rules that apply to both scenarios.
| • | Workgroup: When installing WebBrix across multiple machines in a workgroup environment you should create a user that's part of the Administrators group on every PC involved. This user must have the same username and password on each PC. This user should be the one who's authority the needed services will run under. |
| • | Domain: When installing WebBrix across multiple machines in a domain environment you should create a domain user and had this user to the Administrators group on every PC involved. This user should be the one who's authority the needed services will run under. |

When installing the database feature on a machine that has a default instance of SQL already installed, the install will require the input of the sa password. If the sa password is incorrect or not known, the install will not complete successfully. |
