Can't Connect As Another Windows User
Jun 20, 2008
When attempting SQL Replication I am getting an error that the user I setup for connecting to the Distribution database was unable to connect. I have setup a domain administrator user on our Domain (Active Directory) with the name of SDP. In order to test the SDP login I attempted to connect as DOMAINSDP, and it failed. If I login to Windows (2000) as SDP I can connect to the Server using Windows Authentication without any problem.
Why can I not connect using SQL Server Authentication as DOMAINSDP when I am logged into Windows as kblum? Is there some sort of setting that I need to establish to allow this?
TIA

I've scoured Google searching for an answer that seems like it should beeasy but apparently isn't...when I open SSMS to connect to a SQL 2005database and choose Windows authentication, it greys out the User Namebox...problem is, the server I need to connect to is in another domain...howon earth are you supposed to specify a different Windows user name toconnect with other than the one currently logged into the machine?-Ben--Posted via a free Usenet account from http://www.teranews.com

I want to connect to a SQL server from my workstation using the application in the Subject, but I need to connect as a different Windows user. Basically, I login to my workstation with my "Joe User" account, but for servers I used my "Joe Admin" account for security purposes. However, the Management console autofills in my workstation username when I select "Windows authentication" for the connection, and grays out the username/password fields so that I cannot specify another set of credentials.
Is there a way to change this behavior? Otherwise I will need to termserv into a server using my administrative account, install the management software there, and then begin the process. That is a lot of unecessary overhead that I would like to avoid.
Thank You,
John G

Hello,
I am creating a windows application that is not going to be used in a controlled environment like a LAN or some other network, so I want to include a local database in the install of this app. Ideally, I would like to use SQL 2005 Express like you would MSDE or Access, but I am not sure if the user must have SQL Server installed on their machine in order for this to work and I don't have a machine without it to test on.
Any help on this is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Derek

We are looking at developing an SQL Server 2005 Database and I would like to use Windows Authentication rather than SQL Server Authentication to connect our client app.
In our development environment, we have two Servers, one being used as a file server and the other as an SQL Server. We have now set up a domain using the file server as the domain controller. (We had previously been set up to use a workgroup).
I have set up an active directory group called SqlDevelopers and added an active directory user called Jonathan to it.
On the SQL Sever, in management studio, I have set up a new server login which uses windows authentication called DomainSqlDevelopers. I used the GUI to verify I could see the domain and the group.
The default database is set to a test database on the server. A user in the test database is mapped to the DomainSqlDevelopers and given the Roles dbo, db_datareader, db_datawriter.
To test the log in, on the server, I logged out as administrator and in as Jonathan. I could successfully access the server through management studio using windows authentication.
However, if I log in as Jonathan on my client PC and try to access the SQL Server using management studio and windows authentication, I have problems.
The first time I try I will get a timeout error. If I try again will get either:
Login failed for user ''. The user is not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection
Or
Cannot generate SSPI context
I can€™t determine any pattern to which of the above errors I get.
However, if I log in as administrator on my client PC, I can connect to the server using management studio and windows authentication.
Sounds like Active Directory/Domain or other Network issue (Not really my area). I would be grateful for any help.
Thanks,
Jon

I have a user who cannot login to a .mdb when he is logged
in to Windows, on his workstation or any other.
No one can login to the .mdb when he is logged in to Windows.
He CAN login to the same .mdb if someone else is logged in
to Windows, either on his workstation or any other.
When the user logs in he gets the following error:
MS SQL Server Login
Connection Failed:
SQL
State: €˜28000€™
SQL Server Error 18456
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server] Login failed
for user €˜domainusername€™
I have removed and recreated the ODBC Connection
while he is logged in. I have tried changing the trusted login to
administrator (in the window that pops up when he fails to connect).
He has the permissions he needs to the .mdb because he can
login under anyone else€™s profile.
I tried copying his profile to a brand new user and ended up
with the same result.
This leads me to wonder if there is some corruption in one
of his profile€™s .dat files or ???
This is the boss€™ account and he does not want to be given a
new username and profile€¦
Microsoft SQL Server
2000 - 8.00.760 (Intel X86)
Running on MS Windows 2003 Server Standard SP1
All workstations are XP SP2 with MS Access 2003 SP2 (from
Office Pro distro)
We use roaming profiles.
All systems within the same physical and logical network and domain.
Any help you can provide will be greatly appreciated.
Please let me know if there is any additional information you need.
Thanks,

Hi, I'm new to SQL Express 2005.
I found information regarding : "Cannot open user default database. Login failed."on this forum but I think that in my case it's a bit different issue.
I have a website (ASP.NET 2.0) accessing DB, in the mean time Windows Service tries to update some data in the same DB (Service runs as NT AUTHORITYLOCAL SYSTEM). The second connection is rejected: "Cannot open user default database. Login failed.Login failed for user ....".
Problem occurs only when both: service and website are running at the same time. So service and website are running without problems when they are connecting DB exclusively.
My connection string is:
"Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename="|DataDirectory|spider-lab.mdf";Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True"
I would be grateful if you can help me

We were using sql authentication on our sql server 2000 servers, Butneed to use windows authentication. I have an sql user jdoe that ownsmany different objects in multiple databases. I have tried adding thewindows login of jdoe with the exact same permissions as the sql userjdoe, but it complains because it says jdoe already exists. So Iattempt to delete the sql user of jdoe (remembering the permissions soI can reapply them to the windows user soon to be created) But it says"you cannot drop the selected login id because that login id ownsobjects in one or more databases" So now I am trying to figure out howto change the ownership of those many many objects in the manydatabases from jdoe to dbo so I can delete this sql user of jdoe. Doesanyone know of a way to convert an sql login to a windows login? Or ifthat can't be done, how to change the owner of many objects to dbo so Ican delete this user? Maybe a T-SQL script or stored procedure. Thereis a stored procedure called sp_changeobjectowner but that only worksfor one object, how would I do that on all the objects that jdoe owns?As you can see I am a newbie but I appreciate any help you canprovide!!! Thanks in advance!

Just spoke w/ our network admin and he mentioned that we use SPI, so being brand new to ASP, i did some googling and found this string:
the username and password is the account i have for the database, which is windows authentication, so i made sure the domain was in there. i am unsure of what i am doing wrong.
set conn = server.createobject("adodb.connection")
Conn.open "Data Source=INTRANETSERV;Initial Catalog=facultyabsences;Integrated Security=SSPI;User ID=domainusername;Password=mypassword;"
conn.open connection
this is the error i receive:
Microsoft OLE DB Service Components error '80040e21'
Multiple-step OLE DB operation generated errors. Check each OLE DB status value, if available. No work was done.
/intranets/absentee/db3.asp, line 3

WE have an appl testing the SQL security feature, at some point in time
they drop the BUILTINAdministrators group from the login,
changed the security mode to "Windows NT only", but no users have system admin
server role, after the SQL server was restarted, no one can connect to the server. No one has authority to change the security mode back to "mixed"
(all standard logons will not work)
Any comment ?
The way I can think of to fix the problem:
detach all user databases
run rebuildm.exe
reattach all user databases
recreate the required logins
Any other suggestions/solutions, Thanks

Hi,
I have SQLExpress and SQL2005 both installed on my W2K3 server. I can access my databases with SQL2005 without problems.
As far as my memory serves me, I have not made any manual changes to the SQLExpress setup - nor will I as my users will have no knowledge as to how to - it must be an out-of-the-box solution.
I am using VS2005 to create a Windows Form project. I used VS2005 IDE to create a database as MyBookings.mdf . I have, in the IDE successfully created a table. This is all using SQLExpress.
I now wish to access the database and have the following as my connection string:
string connectionString = "Data Source=.\SQLExpress;Integrated Security=True;Timeout=60;Initial Catalog = MyBookings;Application Name=SQLExpressTest;AttachDBFilename=.\MyBookings.mdf";
The following error message is generated when I try to access the db from within my program:
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException:A connection was successfully established with the server, but then an error occurred during the login process. (provider: Shared Memory Provider, error: 0 - No process is on the other end of the pipe.)
The SQL log enties for my past several tries are:
007-03-20 09:57:50.92 Logon Cannot attach the file 'MyBookings.mdf' as database 'MyBookings'. [CLIENT: <local machine>]
2007-03-20 09:58:13.92 spid51 Error: 5105, Severity: 16, State: 2.
2007-03-20 09:58:13.92 spid51 A file activation error occurred. The physical file name '.MyBookings.mdf' may be incorrect. Diagnose and correct additional errors, and retry the operation.
2007-03-20 09:58:13.92 Logon Error: 1832, Severity: 20, State: 1.
2007-03-20 09:58:13.92 Logon Cannot attach the file '.MyBookings.mdf' as database 'MyBookings'. [CLIENT: <local machine>]
I have spent 2 days researching this and have come up with no solution.
Can someone help me please.
Thank you.

We have a SQL database on a non standard instance. If I open SQL server manager and connect to that database using integrated Windows Authentication I can basically do whatever I want with that database.However, if I try to connect to that database remotely (or even from the sql server) using a test connection UDL it only works if I use Windows integrated security. If I specify my account details specifically (or any other account which has access) it doesn't want to connect.

I am not able to connect to SQL Database server using windows authentication when I am connected through VPN connection.However I am able to connect to same server using SQL server authentication and also able to do RDP to DB server machine.
I found a resolution in one of the forum suggesting to change UserRasCredentials to 0 value in *.pdk file.Since VPN connection which I am using generates instant proxy this resolution doesn't work.
Also application which I am using does windows authentication connection it is required for me to impersonate windows authetication when connected using VPN.

Hi all,
I'm working on a project where I have to create a password protected form for teachers to submit reports about students.
Originally I was going to use asp.net to create the form, but unfortunately the server I'm working with will not be granted asp functionality in the allotted timeframe.
To solve this issue I have another idea. So I will ask a few questions to help with research before I begin coding.
Is it possible to create a windows application that can connect to an access database hosted online? The windows app will need to be be able to update, insert, and select information from the database.
There is only going to be about 30-40 people using this windows application once or twice a week.
Thus I envision taking a password protected access database and dropping it onto a server.
The windows application will have the online location of the database embeded into the code. (connection string)
From there on out coding for the windows application should be the exact same as if the database was hosted locally on the computer, correct?
Also,
1. What is a good way to check and make sure the computer is connected to the internet before my application tries to access the database?
2. Are there any drastic security issues with this process that I should think about. The database will only be password proected, and the windows application will take a username/password from the user and check it against a table before they are able to submit info to the database.
I just need to be pointed in the right direction for this project.
Thanks.

I have a test environment set up at home with a small windows server 2003 Active Directory domain. I created a windows security group on the dc and added myself and another user to the group. I then use this group as a login for SQL Server and add the login to the sysadmin server role. This works exactly as I would expect on the Windows Server computer (which is also the Domain Controller) regardless of which computer I use to connect to this Windows Server computer. However, when I set up the exact same login on the local sql server instance of my client laptop running windows xp pro, the I get an error message (Login failed for user MYDOMAINdgolds...) when I attempt to connect to the local instance of SQL server, even though I am able to connect to the instance on the domain controller with no problems using this same client laptop under the same user account. The only way I am able to connect locally on the laptop under this account (which does not have local admin privileges on any box, for testing purposes) is to add the user account separately as a login, rather than as part of a group. I'm curious as to why being a member of a security group that is part of the sysadmin server role does not allow me to connect to the local instance of SQL Server on this client laptop. The windows server computer is running SQL2k5 Enterprise, and the client laptop is running SQL2k5 developer. Any insight into this would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Dave

Hi
I have another question now.
As the topic said, my sql server 2000 installed on windows xp sp2, the computer's name is "ADMIN" and the server 2000's name is "ADMIN".
When i startup the sql server 2000, it just listening on shared memory and name pipes, not including the "TCP/IP" . So i can not connect to the sql server using the port 1433.
Some people said that the reason was the system's firewall. I also found some supports on the websites 'www.support.microsoft.com'. It said that you can set the port 1433 or the sqlservr.exe to the execption. I also do that, but still not works.
Is there any things i forget and how can i solve the problems! Thanks for advances.

Hi all,
I have to deal with a private network of laptops which are all equiped with preinstalled "Windows XP home"
I've installed SQLExpress on one of these, but I cannot connect on it from the rest of the laptops. (I've successfuly done this with "Windows XP profesional" though, and local connections work fine as well).
I've already setup the SQLExpress to accept conections throuigh TCP/IP but I can not think of something else. (Security comes to mind, but I do not know how to resolve it on "Windows XP Home").
Thank you

Hello everyone,
We have SQL server 2000 on windows 2000. From our desktop MS Access was connected to database through ODBC. Since yesterday (after our consultant had updated another asp application in the same server) we are getting €œSQL Server Error: 18452. €¦.. Login failed for user €˜(null)€™. Reason: not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection. €œ
The consultant saying he did not touch any settings on server (?). And the problem is even server€™s security property shows it has mixed mode authentication. But I cannot connect to server even through my SQL server enterprise manager in windows authentication mode. I can connect if I use SQL server authentication. Through ODBC I can connect also and test fine, if I use SQL authentication. But the Access application wouldn€™t connect using SQL authentication in ODBC.
So, can any one help me to find out what else could be done to make sure that the server is going to accept windows authentication. I€™m thinking any other settings or registry change €¦ etc. Please help.
Thanks

I changed the login password on my computer today, and now I cannot connect to the SQL Server instance I have on that same machine. I am using Windows Authentication. I would think that, if I can log on to my computer, I would be able to connect to the database, since I have been "authenticated" by windows but, that does not appear to be the case. Can anyone offer any advice? Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

I have problem connecting to a SQL 2000 server that is hosted on a Windows 2003 server. My application uses classic ASP with VB6 components. VB6 components connect to SQL server and return data to ASP application. Everything was working fine when the application and SQL server was hosted on NT machine. Recently we have shifted to Windows 2003 server. Since then we could not establish connection to SQL2000.
I'm using UDL as connection string.
IIS and SQL2000 hosted on the same machine with Windows 2003 OS.
This seems to be a security issue. Earlier I faced this issue for a .net application which I resloved adding a domain account to both SQL server and IIS directory security.
Request your input to solve this problem.

Hello Everyone,
I have a Report Server setup on my laptop (XP Pro SP2). I have developed a report which I would like to view from a Windows Forms Application (VB.NET) using a ReportViewer. When I try it from the local machine it works correctly, but if I try to connect and preview the same report from my other PC (Vista Home Premium) I am getting the "Unable to connect to the remote server. A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because the connected host failed to respond." error.
I have setup the Processing mode to Remote and correctly setup the ReportPath and ReportServerUrl using:
With rptRetEmp
.ProcessingMode = Microsoft.Reporting.WinForms.ProcessingMode.Remote
.ServerReport.ReportServerUrl = New Uri("http://192.168.1.2/CPMReports")
.ServerReport.ReportPath = "/CPM_Reports/Test"
.ServerReport.Refresh()
.RefreshReport()
End With
Where CPMReports is the Report Server virtual directory and CPM_Reports is the folder where the report Test resides.
I do not know if this has anything to do with the fact that Vista Home does not have Report Services enabled or it is just a permissions problem. I have red several posts that describe similiar problems, but I could not find a solution.
Thank you for your help.

Hi,
I think my description says it all. I have just installed Studio Express for the first time.
I want to attach a database. When the connect to server dialog is displayed the user name and password text box is greyed out. The Password box is blank and I need to edit this. I switch to SQL authentication they are enabled but if I switch back to Windows authentication they are both greyed out.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled but still no luck,
Any help would be great.

Hi!
I understand that this topic is one of the most discussed topics ever. However i could not find the relevant information after going through (almost) all the posts so far. Hence this post. I am getting the 'SQL Server does not exist or access denied' error when I am trying to access SQL Server from a WINDOWS SERVICE. SQL Server and the Windows service are running on two different machines. (When they are on the same machine, it works). All the solutions I found so far are related to web apps. What should I do in the case of a windows service? My connection string uses SQL server authentication. (I tried with windows authentication. Its not working either.). Under what login does windows services run and how can I add it to valid SQL server logins?
