I wish to use something other than sql's SA account user to connect to
my data warehouse, so I created a user in our active directory user.
Ill use dw as the new user as example.
after I created the user, dw, in ADS, I added the user via Management
Studio in Security> Logins.
I grant ower of ads\dw to my datawarehouse.
I try to connect to the database engine using SQL Servier
Authentication, Login: ads\dw.
I get Cannot connect to xxxx, Login failed for user 'ads\dw' (Microsoft
SQL Server, Error: 18456).
Next, I add this user to the local server's administrators group (the
server is in admin mode) and login.
Now I can connect to the database as user dw. ( i suspect the users
memebership of administrator is the reason).
I dont wish to have the dw user part of administrator, but I want it to
have control over just the datawarehouse database.
What am I doing wroing?
TIA
Rob
