Hi all,

I am facing a very strange problem. while connecting SQL throught login name 'sa', I am getting following message

Unable to connect to server
Server Msg. 18452, level 16, state 1
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server] Login failed for user 'sa'. Reason: Not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection.

While I am able to connect through 'Use windoes NT authentication'

Since this is important.

Waiting for reply ASAP.

Thanks in advance.

What version of SQL Server?

Looks like you are trying to login under mixed mode secuirty or something, instead of SQL server authentication.

I think that SQL Server was installed to only allow Windows Authentication. You have to allowed mixed mode in order to be able to use SQL authentication. Right click on your server in Enterprise Manager, go to properties then to security tab. Select mixed mode authentication.
