SYMPTOMS
When you make a trusted connection to a SQL Server using the 16-bit Multi- protocol Netlibrary on a Windows for Workgroups client computer, which is simultaneously logged on to a Microsoft domain and a NetWare network, the client computer is inappropriately requested to supply domain credentials. This occurs even if the connection is forced over named pipes (ncacn_np:servername).



WORKAROUND
To work around this problem, do one of the following:


 * Enter in the domain credentials at each connection

-or-
 * Remove the NetWare network shell from the client computer.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft SQL Server version 6.5. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.



MORE INFORMATION
The multi-protocol network library uses the features of the Windows NT RPCs to pass domain credentials to the server when making integrated security connections to SQL Server. This is useful if a non-Microsoft client, such as a NetWare client, needs to make an integrated security connection to SQL Server.

If the Windows for Workgroups client has not logged into the Microsoft domain, then a Domain Credentials dialog box is displayed prompting the user for a domain, user ID and password.

If the Windows for Workgroups client successfully logs on to the Microsoft domain, the domain credentials are passed at the time of the connection and the Domain Credentials dialog is not displayed.

If the Windows for Workgroups client has a NetWare network shell installed as a second network, and has logged on to and validated by the Microsoft network, then the Domain Credentials is displayed inappropriately.
