If a PC is using XP Home then the user will authenticate as
guest. Even with matching logins and passwords it will still
be guest logging in under windows authentication. XP Home
uses simple file sharing.

There must be more to it than that. I am in a workgroup on a home network.
I have matching usernames and passwords on every machine and I cannot get
passed the "Login failed for remotemachine\Guest" prompt. Only fix was to
use mixed mode and add a user as you suggested. Works for now but I'd like
to know why windows authentication won't work.
Thanks for the help.

Are you in a domain? If not then create a local user on the server that
matches the user you are signed onto your client with (same user name and
same password). This should then allow you to connect via Windows
Authentication.
If I select 'Use SQL Server Authentication' the error is: "Login failed
for user 'Joe'. The user is not associated with a trusted SQL Server
connection.
This error is because the server is configured for Windows Authentication
only. You can change it to mixed mode on the server by using Management
Studio and in Object Explorer Right Clicking the Server and clicking on
Properties. Select the Security section and change the Server Authentication
to SQL Server and Windows Authentication mode and click OK. You need to
restart SQL Server for it to take effect. You'll also need to add a SQL
login for yourself.

The Allow Remote Conections is not the correct setting (it controls the
ability for remote servers to execute stored procedures on the local
server via a linked server) The easiest thing to do is on the server go
to Start>Programs>Microsoft SQL Server 2005>Configuration Tools>SQL
Surface Area Configuration and click on Surface Area Configuration for
Services And Connections. Under the Database Engine section on the left
select Remote Connections and select the Local and remote connections
radio burron and select Using both TCP/ip and named pipes and click
Apply.

I have SQL 2005 Developer installed on one computer, and the Client tools
only on another. When I try to connect to te server from the client I
get an
error:
"Named pipes provider: Error 40. Could not open a connection to SQL
Server.
Microsoft SQL Server error 233."
There is also a hint with the error message that says "...by default,
SQL
Server does not allow remote connections"
Checking the Properties for the server, the Connections option, the
check
box for "Allow Remote Connections to this Server" is checked.
Interestingly, I can connect to the Analysis Services Server on my
Server
computer from the client.
Hi. I'm having the same problem, and your suggestion gets me closer (my
remote computer sees the full server name now), but I still can't get past
the 'Test Connection' button (in configuring a SqlDataSource in VS2005).
If I select 'Use Windows Authentication' the error is: "Login failed for
user 'remoteMachine\Guest'. I can't see how to change that it's looking
for Guest user, and user Guest is turned on anyway.
If I select 'Use SQL Server Authentication' the error is: "Login failed
for user 'Joe'. The user is not associated with a trusted SQL Server
connection.
I can remotely browse IIS websites on the server, and locally on the
server the connection to SQL server works fine, but I just can't see the
SQL Server database remotely. I even turned off the firewall as yet
another guess. Any other suggestions as to places to look will be much
appreciated.
Thanks -Fred
