Importing User Profiles from SBS 2003

I am trying to setup a MOSS 2007 Enterprise server and built the SSP, but
when I attempt to import user profiles from my SBS 2003 standard domain they
show 0 profiles. Log says crawled, so I assume it searched but found nothing
to import.

I know SBS uses several OUs to sort users do I need to customize MOSS in
order to find these OUs?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Sean,
Start by verifying the SSP Default Access Account has sufficient permission
to crawl AD on the SBS server. It is not un-usual to give the default access
account local administrator access on the domain controllwe, although some
would argue it is too much permission and I would tend to agree.
Next, make sure you have configured the Profile Import properties correctly.
Are the two servers member of the same AD domain?

Mike,
I used the domain admin account and now it is working. Where can I find out
exactly what access is required for the sharepoint account to ensure
functionality but not be overkill?

Thanks for your help!
