unable to authenticate to sql express 2005 - the sql is in the dmz - the client connecting is in the internal LAN
using mixed authentication
or just sql it fails
error 18456
i can telnet to the sql port 1433
its an authentication issue - running windows 2008 r2 (both client and server)
the dmz server is in a workgroup
the internal client is in a domain - its something to do with this i believe

usually this is a firewall in the middle blocking traffic, and you need to touch your firewall guys to open the port 1433 (at least) between your lan and your dmz ..
