Hi, I'm having trouble connecting to SQLServer in my ASP program.

here's the code

<%
dim objConnection, ObjRecorSet, strConnection, strOut, objCmd, objParameters
Set objConnection = Server.CreateObject ("ADODB.Connection")
strConnection = "DSN=SQL_Tracker;Database=Tracker;UID=sa;PWD=;"
objConnection.Open strConnection
...
%>

I'm getting this error on the line that opens the connection.

Error Type:
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers (0x80040E4D)
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Login failed for user
'HOME\IUSR_HOME'.
/Tracker/list_team.asp, line 11

Notes:

I've set up the DSN called 'SQL_Tracker' in my ODBC settings.
When I use the Test Connection button it's successful.

The SQL Server is running on my own computer, and so I have
full DBA rights on it

any ideas what's wrong?
