Author Cannot log-in to SQL Server
p

2006-12-05, 7:12 pm

I've got SQL Server Express 2005 running as a backend and a front-end
made with microsoft access. I can connect when I run the front-end on
the same machine as the SQL Server but as soon as I try to set up a
network ODBC connection I get these errors. (The access front-end can
see the SQL Server - just not login to it).

This is the error I get:

Connection failed.
SQLState. '28000'
SQL Server Error: 18452
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Login failed for user
'sa'. The user is not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection.

I have tried this with several different user name/password
combinations with varying degrees of permissions but none of them can
login. There is norton protection on but I set it to allow this type of
connection.

I went through the SQL Server 2005 connection FAQ with no result.

Perhaps one of these articles will help:

Configuration -Configure SQL Server 2005 to allow remote connections
http://support.microsoft.com/defaul...kb;EN-US;914277

Configuration -Connect to SQL Express from "downlevel clients"
