I'm trying to connect SQL Server Database using the users from any open source LDAP (Open Ldap, Apache DS etc)
After going through some of the documents I found that SQL Server gives a way to connect to database using Windows User / Active Directory, but this related to Windows Authentication. What I m looking for is not Windows Authentication using SQL Server and Active Directory but authentication with Active Directory users from SQL Server without actually logging in to windows using those user details.
And Is there also a way I can achieve this with other open source ldap servers ?
Thanks.

I been trying to connect my AWS based windows 16 server to a Microsoft SQL Server which uses Windows authentication. All I received from the team was the server URL and the database name, I been trying to connect tableau prep to the SQL but all I am getting is the
"SQL Server Network Interfaces: No credentials are available in the security package" error.
I have also enabled Windows authentication on the server but is it possible for me to manually add my Active directory username and password to the windows 16 windows authentication ? how do I approach this ?
Would appreciate any kind of input on this.
Currently I have two Azure VM's, one for the ASP.NET application (VM1) and another with SQL Server 2017 (VM2).
At the moment, the application on VM1 connects to VM2's SQL Server using SQL Server authentication, but now I want to change it to Windows authentication. I found this on the Azure website about how to connect:
Virtual networks also enables you to join your Azure VMs to a domain. This is the only way to use Windows authentication to SQL Server. The other connection scenarios require SQL Server authentication with user names and passwords.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-machines/windows/sqlclassic/virtual-machines-windows-classic-sql-connect
But there is also a website forum ask to use Azure Active Directory domain in order to achieve this.
I am confused regarding this, can anyone help me with a description how to connect my VM1 application to VM2 SQL Server using Windows authentication?
I am trying to connect to Azure database via DataGrip using Active Directory connection (Note: not Active directory - password)
I followed accepted answer from this
I set integratedSecurity=false and authentication=ActiveDirectoryIntegrated.
When trying to connect to Test Connection I get error message
Connection to Azure SQL Database failed. Cannot set "Authetication" with "IntegratedSecurity" set to "true".
Is it some kind of bug that can be repaired, if so how could I solve this issue?
Edit:
More information:
On Azure Portal I can see that this is SQL database.
Server name ends with database.windows.net.
When I try to connect via Connection String (in Data Grip Add data from URL) generated by Azure I am not able to connect also.
The DataGrip support us using Azure Active Directory Authentication. Please see: Microsoft Azure .
You can get the connect string (URL) with Active Directory integrated authentication from Portal:
Replace the URL with the Connect string(Active Directory integrated authentication):
Hope this helps.
There is a lot of confusion around terminology here.
In short, the connection string attribute Integrated Security=true indicates you want to use "windows authentication". This type of authentication might be supported by any Azure SQL (anything whose hostname ends in database.windows.net). Azure SQL only supports Azure Active Directory authentication, butit might be possible to implement single sign on between a windows domain account and Azure Active Directory.
I've setup an SSAS server and I've connected it with my active directory server.
But when I try to login on the ssas server (sql server management studio) using an active directory account I get the following error:
Cannot connect to SQLASServer.
The integrated security 'ClaimsToken' is not supported for native connections. (Microsoft.AnalysisServices.AppLocal.AdomdClient)
This error shows up before it actually tries to connect or anything so if I try to login using a bogus username and no password I still get the same error.
When I login to the server with an active directory account and then login on sql server management studio using Windows Authentication it does work without any errors.
Does anybody know how I can solve this issue?
Make sure you choose Windows Authentication from the Authentication dropdown. The options that say “Active Directory” are poorly worded as they mean Azure Active Directory and are not appropriate for on premises SSAS.
If that does not solve it provide a screenshot of your connection dialog in SSMS.
my mistake was that I had chosen Azure Analysis Services from before from the first drop down menu so I was getting this error. Once I changed it to SQL database, the option to connect with Azure Active Directory was available as well as to connect through SQL database credentials. In order to use the Azure Active Directory you need to create an active directory account and set that account as admin on Azure Portal first.
The SQL Server (version 2016) is located in the local Virtual Machine(Windows Server 2012 R2) and I need to provide authentication for the users in the Azure Active Directory. As I am new to this I am not even sure whether it is possible or not. Can anybody guide me.
No, it is impossible. Please refer to this official document.
Connecting to SQL Server running on an Azure VM is not supported using
an Azure Active Directory account. Use a domain Active Directory
account instead.
It means if your local sql server could not use Azure Active Directory Authentication. You could use local domain Active Directory users.
If you use Azure SQL Database and SQL Data Warehouse, you could use Azure Active Directory authentication. Please refer to this link.
