I would definately agree with the other replies. To play
devils advocate though, a benifit to NOT using domain
authentication would be you can pick up your sql box and
plop it into any domain and have no issues with your
logins. Yes, these issues can be overcome, the rewards
dont outweigh the benifits, you would probably never
really do this, but its a reason. In addition to that, I
beleive(could be wrong) that its tough to use WINNT auth
for a web site?
