unable to login remotely in SQL Server 2005.

  • Hi

     I can login into the SQL Server locally under mixed mode. But i am not able to login into the server remotely. I can logino the remotely only if i have sysadmin rights on the box...But i am not supposed to be sysadmin on the box. i have the access for some of the databases under dbo role. .......

    There is no problem with ports also.Its already open. Remote connections are marked as checked for both  TCP/IP.

    The problem is if i have sysadmin role then only i am able to login remotely into the sql server under mixed mode. It shoud not the case in general . I am not supposed to be sysadmin role on the SQL Server box. I was just wondering if any one can reslove the problem it would be great appriciate for me

  • Are you running with SQL Server 2005 Express Edition. I hope this issues is with that edition and few mant threads are already running in this forum for the same.

  • no iam using enterprise edition..is there anything with set SPN.....?

  • Wat's the default db for the login? does the login have necessary privilege on default db?

  • I developed on a remote SQL Server with DBO permissions for the last few months, I have browser service enabled in the surface area configuration tool, I also have allow remote and local and I also enabled both TCP/IP and Named Pipes, the login was with IP address which changed several times without connection issues.  I am an admin in my laptop but on the remote server it was DBO without connection issues on the database engine, Reporting services however will drop the login info serveral times a day and I just know adding that info is part of a normal day.  Hope this helps.

  • i will just summarise it point wise

    1. have browser services enabled and running

    2. have local and remote tcp/named pipes enabled

    3. have named pipes protocol enabled

    this will prevent most connection problems.
