SBS 2008 includes Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 and one of the tasks that
needs to be performed is to change the default Central Administration
Application Pool account.

The following describes the process

Why? And are you sure this is the appropriate venue for this discussion?

I'm not sure I understand the 'Why' but if you are referring 'why the task
needs to be performed?' then it's because the task description indicates
that this account has to be unique.

As far as being the appropriate venue, I thought that some people could
benefit from reading the post. It wasn't meant to be a subject for
discussion. I apologize if I did something wrong.

The why was indeed why would you _need_ to mess with Sharepoint. If it's
been deployed as part of SBS setup, you can expect it to be working
without the need for manual tweaks.

The point there was that SBS2008 is still in beta, and there are more
appropriate venues to discuss issues with it (particularly, where MS staff
will pick up comments).

Out of the box SharePoint, although it works, it still needs configuration.
The configuration steps that needs to be performed are the same as any other
SharePoint installation, on a non-SBS environment. There are a couple of
particulars to SBS when it comes to mail enabling libraries, but other than
than the rest of the configuration steps are the same SBS or non-SBS
environment.

Do people go through these steps? My guess is most probably not, and that's
the reason for the document.

The reason for posting here (btw, I also posted the links to the SBS 2008
yesterday) was that there are a lot more people here that could have taken
advantage of these documents.

I didn't see it as 'issues', that the document would have provided
solutions. The steps, especially with the SharePoint document, apply to
every SharePoint installation, whether on SBS or Windows Server platform.
