Login fails

  • One last thought. I don't want to steer everybody helter skelter. Have you installed Desktop Engine SP3a?

  • Yeah I'll have to drag them out of the closet, first I want some NT gurus look at. It's too wierd. On the client that's not part of the domain I connect to one of the SQL servers but not the other, and on the one I connect to event log on that server keeps showing me failure audits event id 529 and 681, over and over again as if it keeps trying to win autheticate while being connected through SQL authetication, Very Wierd

    A network trace would be real handy right now... Are you or do you have anyone capable of sorting through one? Is Network Monitor set up on the server in question?

  • I'm must apologize, for something that has become second nature when I'm looking at this that I forget to relate it in discussing any issues.

    My environment is an active/active cluster.

  • Both are set to mixed mode, right?

  • Found the answer, coming from an untrusted domain is the problem.

    Even though I register my Server with a SQL server user login my EM still uses NT authetication to do polling.

    To stop polling - go to EM, options, and uncheck Server State Polling. This stopped all the errors in the NT Security event log.

    Of course this means I'm blind using EM if a service goes down, but I use email and page notification on that anyway.

    Here's a bit more about what I found

    Other items that hindered

    Lan Manager authetication level should be equal 2K and above, NTLMv2 gave me a problem on xp pro, on 2003 it didn't.

    Also one of the servers was listing on a port other than 1433.

    Any thoughts on my answer would be most welcome.

    Thanks all,

  • Very interesting conclusion, John. I was not aware that EM acts a client, but it actually makes sense. I suppose that's where EM separates you as the Database Administrator vs. the System Administrator for the server.

    All the best,
