Hi,

I am having an impossible time trying to determine how to specify a
user/pass for the System DSN connection I have selected for recording
performance data using "Performance Logs and Alerts". Whenever I try to
start the counter, it attempts to connect to the database with a blank
username and pass.

I am trying to use SQL Server 2005 Express as the data repository. The
setup for the system DSN also does not allow me to specify a global
user/password.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Chris Back
 
Try using windows integrated authentication.
