I have read that if no database user account is set, then the login will use the guest account.

In our lab, that is how it is setup, there is no database user account on our sharepoint db. So I am assuming the login account is using the guest to access the database. But how is the login able to update the database (from within sharepoint) with just the guest? What type of permissions does guest have by default?

In our production, our service account has a database user account as well as login. But that is it. So how do our users (within sharepoint) make changes to the databases (adding sites, docuemtns, etc.) with out a login OR database account?
