Hi

I have a newbie security question:

We have a VB application and a website that will connect
to our SQL server 2000 DB. Should the security
authentication mode be set to Windows only or mixed?

Wondering what is more secure, but also which one will
give less headaches when setting up the VB app and
website connections.

Thanks
