The problem with the method is that it totally defeats the purpose of having
set up a DMZ zone. Not only it stores on the DMZ machine the password of a
privilegied account that has been set up a wide access on the SQL-Server but
this windows account can be used directly as an anonymous user under IIS7 to
access the SQL-Server; so you don't have even to hack/crack the password to
use it.
In general, using a SQL login account over a windows account is not really
recommended for security purposes because the password is transmitted in
clear over the network (but this problem can be solved with by using SSL to
communicate with the sql server). However, in this particular case, I don't
see the advantage of not using a SQL login account if the windows account
used for the impersonation is to be readily accessible to any hacker who
will get access to the DMZ machine.

Hmm interesting; my mistake then. Mind listing the settings for me? I

like to note it if I need it :).
So I am taking a guess you had to do impersonation by in windows? Sorry
not
a Windows Server expert? Mind explaining to me, I would like to learn
:).
Thanks.

Actually I got it done with a local account today.
I had to go through a list of about half a dozen settings before i was
done.
I had to create two identically local accounts on the SQL server and
DMZ
server and a few other settings. Now it works great.

Computer?
If I am understanding you right; you can't. Because those accounts
are
local to that computer, there is no way for SQL Server to get the
authentication token from a local computer account. If you have
Domain
Controller out there; then you can create a DMZ account on an
internal server.

How do I make SQL server trust a computer in the DMZ?
