About Accessing the Service for the Siebel Server

The Document Server is a component of the Siebel Server. This component, if enabled, is run as a child process of the service for the Siebel Server. When you run the service for the Siebel Server, use a Microsoft Windows user ID such as SADMIN.

Do not use the LocalSystem user ID to run this service for the following reasons:

  • This user ID grants unnecessary privileges to the Siebel Server, resulting in security issues.

  • Users cannot proceed past the initial prompts when they access Microsoft Word for the first time because they cannot access Microsoft Windows with the LocalSystem user ID.
