Novell authenticated users

  • I'm new to SQL. I have just installed SQL2000 on W2k server. The W2k server is part of a Domain. Currently our users are having to login to a domain, however this is going to change pretty soon, they will no longer be part of a domain, instead they will get authenticated by Novell Server. My question is, How do I setup these users in the SQL 2000 box? Do I need to add these users individually in W2k box? I've created different Groups in SQL, but not sure where to go from here?

    **FYI, all my databases front-end is Access (for now).

    Thanks in advance.

  • You can use SQL logins and everyone will have to log into SQL.

    If you want integrated logins, then the Novell server will have to synch with the NT domain, or at leas the SQL SErver local SAM.

  • Steve,

    This is an outstanding site. I work for a Real Estate software company installing our app on SQL 7 and 2000 servers. Realizing the need for synching user accounts for integrated logins, any suggestions on the best/cheapest way to accomplish this. As an enterprise tool, I'm sure it is not uncommon to have Novell accounts utilized for Windows Authentication in SQL. Suggestions? Thanks.
