Strange Login Error Message

G

Guest

I have a SQL 2000/asp.net application which I'm currently building. I am
able to run the application with no problem, but when I attempt to open the
application from other user's machines I get the error "Login failed for user
'domain/IUSR_DELL-OFv7446y6N."

I've verified that the application's security is configured to 'allow all
users'. Each user has a user account in the SQL database.

Does anyone know what could be causing this message to appear? Thanks.

hi.. it seems that the "'domain/IUSR_DELL-OFv7446y6N." is a built-in account
for anonymous access in IIS. try setting your application to windows
authentication so the user will have to login the first time they hit your
asp.net page.. hope this works.. if not, i suggest you try to use a dsn-less
connection so you can take advantage of connection pooling as well..

you can refer to this link for more info.
