Good morning,

I am a working in a mixed environment of Novell clients and windows servers. The servers are running NT and the clients range from Novell client 3.0 to 4. I think and I've seen it happen that you can't have a windows wuthentication login in SQL if you are logging in with a novell client. Is this true? I believe you can only log in to SQL with a SQL server authentication in this environment.

Any thoughts?

Thanks

Laura

Novell client uses a Novell userid, which is not a Windows userid. Windows authentication uses Windows userid. So yes you must use sql authentication.
