That would explain what I am seeing. Is there any way to use a trusted
connection for local system? I tried this but it doesn't work:
<util:User Id="localsystem" Name="localsystem" />
<sql:SqlDatabase Id="MyDatabase" Server="." Instance="Inst1"
Database="master" User="localsystem" />
I don't think this is an uncommon scenario, we setup SQL so that the
application users don't have access to our database but some local NT
accounts do. I don't really want to use a SQL user as I can't see any
way of securing the password, you can always open the MSI and see it.
Thanks
Neil

The SQL CAs are impersonated, so they run as the installing user.
