Re: Authenticating from a workgroup

Thanks. I will check the docs on /netonly. I'm guessing this is not going
to work for me. I need to access SQL Server on a remote machine as my domain
account. I'll give it a shot though.

For remote resources only - yes, you could use, say, `runas /netonly'. You
can't change your *local* identity to be a domain account if you are not a
member of that domain, but you can change your *remote* identity (used only
for authentication to file shares, etc) using `runas /netonly'.

Ok. I don't really understand the answer. I'm guessing you're saying not
if
I'm logged into a local account. If so, then does this mean there is a
way?
Is there a way to log into a domain account when my laptop is not a member
of
the domain?

Not for local logons, no.

Not sure if this has been discussed before and didn't think of any good
searches which might produce good results.

At any rate, I'm using my personal laptop on my customer's network.
They've
also provided me with a desktop machine. My laptop is not joined to
any
company domain, it is it's own workgroup. What I would like to do is
run
a
command prompt (cmd) as my customer assigned network account. However,
when
I attempt to use runas and provide a domain account it fails to
authenticate.
I'm assuming because my laptop is not part of the domain. Is there any
way
to authenticate against a domain from a workgroup computer?
