I'm unable to connect to SQL Server without passing password.
I have created a service account user in Active Directory and created a new login user for same in SQL Server, providing db_creator server role to it.
I then created a new database Testdb and provided db_reader & db_writer in user mapping. I need to run the PowerShell script from different computer for SQL authentication.

I am using this connection string for SQL Server authentication:

I need to connect to SQL Server without passing password from different computers using that service account.

I have a Microsoft Access Application which generates a connection string like:
Provider=SQLNCLI11;Server=servername;Database=db_name;Trusted_Connection=yes;
This works without any problem.
What I want to do is to connect to a SQL Server instance where the user must insert his Active Directory name and password.
Like this:
Provider=SQLNCLI11;Server=servername;Database=db_name;Uid=username;Pwd=password;
This only works for users which are created on the SQL Server directly.
I tried Uid=DOMAIN\username, but it isn't working.
Is this possible? Or is there another way how I can get through this?
The environment:
The User is using a local PC with a local account and then he's doing a "NetworkConnect" with his AD-User and password.
After that, "RunAs" as his AD-User is working BUT there is another Application that is started from the Access Application and this App must be started with the local User-Account.
SQL-Server and the AD-User are member of the same domain.
Your choices are
Login to SQL Server using your the Windows Domain account that you are currently logged into. You do this automatically by specifying Trusted_Connection=yes;, or
Login to SQL Server using a SQL Login.
Those are the only two choices possible using a SQL provider connection string. Specifically, you cannot use the SQL access provider to do impersonation, that is, to login to SQL Server using a different Windows domain account than the one that you are currently logged into.
Microsoft designed the AD integration with SQL Server to use the account of the client application, not to be able to handle logging in as a part of the connection string. If the user isn't going to be logged into the machine using the account needed for the database access, the next best option may be something like ShellRunAs in order to let the user run your client app as the correct AD account.
I'm trying to connect to a remote SQL Server database. It's being hosted on another server within the network at my workplace, but I keep getting an error when trying to connect while being logged in under a specific Windows (AD) account.
I'm using SQL Server Management Studio from my local server. I tried logging in with account "x". When specifying the connection string I'm using a SQL Server authenticated user. This is when I get the error below:
I logged in with a different account "y" to the server and attempted the database connection again (with the same SQL Server authenticated user), and it worked.
Why would I be able to connect under one Windows account and not the other (from the same server) when I'm trying to connect with a SQL Server authenticated user?
Could this be that the Windows account is not part of the correct administrator group?
Any thoughts or insights are appreciated.
Thank you,
In SSMS, I'm trying to use the "Deploy Database to SQL Azure Database" utility.
I'm moving a small local database in SQL Server 2012 to Azure for hosting. But after entering the host database server connection parameters I always get a "Login Failed for user,...." error, referencing the name of the local database to be created on the server.
Why this would fail is unclear, since the database does not exist on the cloud server yet. Here is what I have done:
Set up a firewall exception for my local IP address.
Confirmed my server administrator user name and password
So now I am left guessing... Locally I use Windows Authentication. If a database is to be moved to the server, does it have to have SQL Server authentication, as is required on Azure host?
You need to have the SQL server Authentication enabled in order to be able to login to your database when you move it to Azure.
Once, you login through SQL server authentication, you can create your users then and have different logins for different users.
Hope this helps!
I created a SQL Server instance on Amazon web services. I can remote into it ok.
I created a new login ID and password through the management app, but when I try to connect with the data source administrator in windows I am getting a login failed error. I have tried this several times so I am sure I am not putting the wrong password in.
I have another sql server set up that I can create a login ID and connect to fine.
Any suggestions on what to try?
A couple of things to check:
Have you opened up port 1433 (or your custom TCP port if you specified one) in the security group associated with your EC2 instance (I assume it's EC2 since you said you can remote in)?
Have you created both a SQL Server login and a database user? SQL Server requires two objects for a login: A server login object and a database user object. See more details here: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa337545(v=sql.105).aspx.
I am trying to send an email using the sp_send_dbmail stored procedure of SQL Server with an attachement,
My account doesn't have sysadmin privileges, when an attachement is sent as normal SQL Server user, I get this error
The client connection security context could not be impersonated.
Attaching files requires an integrated client login
Is there is any way to send SQL Server email with attachement without using sysadmin privileges?
Well, if you would have looked at the MSDN documentation for sp_send_dbmail, it says:
Database Mail uses the Microsoft Windows security context of the current user to control access to files. Therefore, users who are authenticated with SQL Server Authentication cannot attach files using #file_attachments. Windows does not allow SQL Server to provide credentials from a remote computer to another remote computer. Therefore, Database Mail may not be able to attach files from a network share in cases where the command is run from a computer other than the computer that SQL Server runs on.
So from this it's clear you have to be connected to SQL Server using Windows authentication (with Integrated Security=SSPI; in your connection string) in order to be able to attach files to e-mails.
This will solve the problem , you just need to provide sysadmin rights to the sql user ,
Command :
sp_addsrvrolemember 'User', 'sysadmin'
