asked on

how do you add non-domain user accounts to SQL2005 Standard ?

Is there any way to add a user from another server (ie an ASP.NET user account) to SQL 2005 without both servers being on a domain?
Basically, we have standalone webservers that are in a workgroup (no PDC), but SQL2005 never lists any machines but their own (to pick windows accounts).

Hi,

Create a login as a SQL login, and specify the username and password.
