Re: Strange integrated authentication success



I forgot to mention the vice versa.

Same from win2003 to xp, the user was appeared as

computer-name-of-xp\guest

and access was denied. Quite expected result.

Hello

I am experiencing strange success of authentication.

I have two boxes, one xp-pro and another windows 2003, both have SQL2005.

Two boxes have no relationships except that they are in same network.
Really nothing such as account and trusted relationship.

Expecting failure, I tried to connect from xp to win2003 with integrated
authentication(trusted_connection=yes).

Result is success. I checked profiler and found the account name is
recorded as Administrator.

What happened?

The two boxes have same passwords for Administrator and I logged on with
the same passwords. But I don't think same password can be a free passport
to the databases.

Do you have any idea?
