I have a VB Script that will be running on all workstations on a
domain from the AD Startup script Global Policies. The script uses ADO
integrated authentication.
This script needs access to a database on SQL Server 2000
I added "Domain Computers" computer group to the DB for access but the
script fails.

Error Opening Connection
Error Description: Login failed for user 'NT AUTHORITY\ANONYMOUS
LOGON'.

Is it possible to use integrated authentication from a startup script?

The script works fine when I use a sql username/pass but its sensitive
info so I want don't want the username/pass passing clear text.
We will be setting up two way encryption, but would feel safer with
integrated.
