SharePoint Services don't start after restart

Hello,

Every time I restart my SharePoint server the following services don’t start (even when they are set to automatic).

-         Office SharePoint Server Search  - Log On as domain\ SharePointActiveDirectoryAcct

-         Office SharePoint Services Search  - Log On as domain\ SharePointActiveDirectoryAcct

-    Office SharePoint Services Timer  - Log On as domain\ SharePointActiveDirectoryAcct

Maybe they should be setup as Local Service or Local System…not sure.

After I restart the server I login using my own AD account and not as SharePointActiveDirectoryAcct t, I open the Services list and when I try to restart the services mentioned above I get error message. When I open the properties for each service and retype the password for SharePointActiveDirectoryAcct I am able to start the service.

Since the services are using the SharePointActiveDirectoryAcct should I be only logging to SharePoint Server using the same account?

Thanks in advance for the help.

Thanks,

B
