    "is it possible to Access the SQL server from Different machine using same window Account."

    It is possible if your applications run under the same AD account ("window Account") and use windows authentication connecting to the SQL server.

    Actually SQL Server Account is windows based authentication and we have created a Service account using AD and now we want to allow the application need to connect the Server via single service account across the Organisation. here each machine have separate AD accounts but connect to SQL server is a windows Account. How can we achieve this.

    (1) Grant the service account the necessary database access on the server

    (2) Configure the application on each PC to run under the service account

    Hi John,

    I have did the same thing but while trying to connect SQL server its giving error, could u please advise how can we set the Application should run using windows service account. here i am using .net windows forms application and same application deployed across the multiple systems and they are connecting using same windows service account. when i enable the Integrated Security=TRUE it uses local/logged in user account for authentication then it got failed because local user doesn't have permission to access the SQL server

    It is only SQL server service Account and server authentication mechanism is only windows based.

    If you want to use a single account, you need to have your .net application use impersonation, so that it connects using an impersonated windows account.

    Otherwise you could create a Login (and user) for an AD group and add your AD users to that AD group. Then the users would be able to connect to SQL server using their credentials, without having to give each them their own logins.

    If you share the error text or error picture, it will be easier to help you.

    Otherwise, it's a guess game.

    OK, please post the login failure message(s) from the errorlog, and the result of this query:

    SELECT type
    FROM sys.server_principals
    WHERE name = 'SVCINFODEVEL'

    On the pics attached usernames are different - ServiceAC vs SVCINFODEVEL.

    Are there any logical links between them?

    Those screenshots aren't Windows Authentication logins; they're SQL logins. If you're using SQL logins, who is running the application doesn't matter, as the AD credentials aren't use.

    I saw many times when users used AD accounts without domain and passwords trying to connect to  SQL server.

    So, it can be the similar case.

    This isn't the case here; the OP is clearly using SQL Server Authentication. You don't select "SQL Server Authentication" and enter a username and password using use AD authentication...

    I don't select, you don't select, but life is diverse and there are deviations.

    Let's see what the author will say.
