SUMMARY
The XLANG file data source name (DSN), which BizTalk Orchestration uses to connect to the XLANG database, uses Microsoft Windows security by default. This article describes how to modify the XLANG DSN to use SQL security.

IMPORTANT: This modification is not recommended because of increased security risks.

Sample Code to Modify the XLANG DSN
To modify the XLANG file DSN so that it uses SQL authentication instead of Windows authentication, follow these steps:  Open Windows Explorer, and browse to the XLANG Scheduler.dsn file in the following folder:

\Program Files\Common Files\ODBC\Data Sources\

 Open XLANG Scheduler.dsn in Notepad. The contents of XLANG Scheduler.dsn appear as follows:

[ODBC] DRIVER=SQL Server UID= DATABASE=XLANG Trusted_Connection=Yes WSID= APP=Microsoft Open Database Connectivity SERVER=CMSERVER2K1 AutoTranslate=No

 Replace the contents of XLANG Scheduler.dsn with the following code:

[ODBC] DRIVER=SQL Server UID=your_user_id PWD=password DATABASE=XLANG WSID= APP=Microsoft Open Database Connectivity SERVER=CMSERVER2K1 AutoTranslate=No

 Stop and restart the XLANG COM+ application for the changes to take effect.

NOTE: You can use the ODBC Data Source Administrator to modify the XLANG file DSN to use SQL Server Authentication. However, if you use this method, the password is not saved with the DSN.
