    One of the goals of MDAC 2.8 was to tighten security .

    SSPI (Security Support Provider Interface ) is used when you are using
    Windows Authentication to connect to the SQL server. That is to say the
    domain account of the interactive user trying to connect to SQL server is
    used.

    Sounds like the authentication token is lost or corrupted or something over
    the VPN and SQL Server does not see the user as a valid domain account.

    Here are some links that I hope help:

    Good luck,
