Let's take this off line.
Apparently, for some reason, you feel that I 'contradicted a response you
made.
Rather than continuing this childish and unprofessional banter:
Much like many of your other comments in this newsgroup. Treat others
as you expect to be treated and you won't have that problem.
People come to this group for guidance and suggestions. Adding
comments which contradict others' suggestions or material in a
demeaning manner will make you unpopular very quickly.
With that said, I apologize. I should not have stooped to your level.
How about providing some specifics.
If you felt 'belittled', it certainly wasn't intentional. If I offered
contradictory information to an OP, then I obviously thought that there was
merit in providing additional information. I have no problem with that.
At least I have enough self confidence to publicly identify myself.

Must be a huge consulting firm that you run out of your home address.
Thanks for restating what I mentioned.

Actually, when properly installed, Domains are more robust and provide

available
to
get it set up and staff 'trained' on the differences. I have clients
with
both small and large domains, and the total maintenance for all
computers
on
the network dropped significantly after converting from Peer-Peer to a
Domain infrastructure.
The "...SSPI context" message is probably due to an application
attempting
to connect to a server and not being properly configured.
About moving 'things' over... There is an issue around keeping user
profiles -but there are tools that will take care of that for us.
Normally,
there is nothing to 'move over'. Sometimes, however, when a domain is
installed, since better security is now available, file storage may be
revised in order to take advantage of the increased security and
possibly
even centralized backup.
Robert, I guess the key question is: "Do you have someone available to
assist with the proper installation, configuration, and training, and
that
could be 'on call' for ongoing assistance?"

Thank you so much for the quick reply.
I was hoping to keep the users in the workgroup rather than as
domain
members because this is a fairly mature system and they have two
years
worth
of work under there current user name setup. Contacts, word
processor
documents, etc.. Moving everything over seems like quite a job.
Also during our testing I was getting a fair amount of sporatic
system
type
error messages if we went a couple of hours without using a work
station.
Something like "Could not generate a SPSI context". It required
rebooting
to
reconnect to the domain.
I have a friend who has a system with 120 users, and he strongly
recommends
staying away from enrolling everyone in the domain, since it will
add
so
much
complexity to the system.
You thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks again,

Windows authentication provides better security, better password

less 'user' maintenance for the DBA, etc..
It really is a 'no-brainer'.

We recently moved our main application from a work group
environment,
to a
server environment.
What are the trade offs in having our users becoming part of our
new
domain
or to remain in their work group and access SQL Server through
Server
Authentication?
Hope to hear from you soon
