#domain #dns(w2k3 - nt4) logininfo

  • Does anyone know why sqlserver(2ksp3 on W2ksp4 with AD-on W2003-server) cannot get to an nt4-domain-info ?

    I've created this windows-group (GRPDevelopersOtherDomain) on my domain. To this group I've added user-id's of an other trusted NT4-domain, to be able to have these users managed by our helpdesk.

    I've granted this windows-group (MYDOMAIN\GRPDevelopersOtherDomain) login to my sql2k instance(virtual) and to some databases.

    All the sql-instances run using windows-accounts.

    When I login as sysadm and I want to show members, it gives this error :

     

    EXEC master..xp_logininfo @acctname = 'MYDOMAIN\GRPDevelopersOtherDomain',@option = 'members'    

    Server: Msg 8198, Level 16, State 12, Procedure xp_logininfo, Line 38

    Could not obtain information about Windows NT group/user 'MYDOMAIN\GRPDevelopersOtherDomain'.

    EXEC master..xp_logininfo @acctname = 'MYDOMAIN\GRPDevelopers',@option = 'members'    

    memberlist is shown

    EXEC master..xp_logininfo @acctname = 'REMOTEDOMAIN\user1'

    (0 row(s) affected)

    Server: Msg 8198, Level 16, State 24, Procedure xp_logininfo, Line 58

    Could not obtain information about Windows NT group/user 'REMOTEDOMAIN\user1' .

    I've found BUG: Xp_logininfo Returns Error 8198 (233161) (http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;233161), but those conditions are not met.

     

    Another thing is that when I look at 'MYDOMAIN\GRPDevelopersOtherDomain' using EM \Security\logins I get to see it's a windows group and it's been granted.

    When I look at the group in a databases userlist, it says database access "via group membership". (I've added that group to the db-users using EM\Security\logins and checked the db with db_datareader group)
