The only way is to have synchronized accounts on both machines, with
identical login names and identical passwords. The account on the SQL box
must, needless to say, have access to SQL. The corresponding account on the
other box must be logged-in or impersonated by the app attempting to access
SQL Server. Otherwise you need a domain as a central authentication
authority.
