I created a windows authenticated login for each of our developers. Each login I created has a default DB and at least one DB assigned w/ dbo privileges. The users in the assigned DB are listed as 'domain\login'. After creating these logins, I removed the developers from the local admin group and removed the BUILTIN\Admin login. Any ideas why one developer can't logon via EM or QA while another can? The error reads something like server doesn't exist or login failed. He's restarted his machine to no avail.

Thanks,
Ray

Are both developers in the same group ? can you not create a new domain group for these developers?

if that was the case you could then add that to your sql logins and they should all have perfect access.

the developers have been added individually to the sql server so they can be assigned permissions individually on their development databases.

this is fixed. we removed an alias to the sql server from the client network utility on the developers machine.
