That is correct,  you can copy and modify the exist dsn file.  If anything,
you should be able to use the existing (without copying) mf20.dsn file if
the database/database server name hasn't changed.

Subject: [THIN] Change the login to the Data Store

I have a requirement to change the login to the Data Store from the Domain
Administrator account to a Service Account. The Farm is PS 4.6, database is
SQL 2000.

A couple of  questions on this:

1. Apart from DBO, what other permissions on the database will the Service
Account need?

2. How do I create the new DSN file? Can I copy the existing one and modify
that? I understand that I would then use dsmaint config /user:username
/pwd:password /dsn:dsnfilename

Any advice much appreciated!
