Dear all

On the local network I can connect to MSDE in Enterprise Manager by registering the server INTRANET1

So now I am at home. I have a connection to INTRANET1 down a VPN, I can get at it with a RDC connection or by setting up a network drive.

Both of these are done via an ip number.

So now, in my home copy of enterprise manager I want to connect to INTRANET1.

How do I register it in Enterprise manager? It doesn't show up in available servers, but if I press on anyway:

Entering INTRANET1 gets "Specified SQL server not found"

Entering server name 192.168.4.3 gets "Login failed for user '(null)' Reason: Not associated with a trusted SQL server connection"

Both of these are 'use Windows authentication' which I would prefer...

Can you help? Thanks.

Use the Clietn Network Utility to create an "Alias" to the server?

You may ahve to set the SQL box to accept "SQL logins" - in addition to Windows style logins

Yes!! I've done it. Alias created, and finally got to register it with a DB login, Windows authentication doesn't seem to work. THANKS!
