Unable to connect to SQL 2005 from Windows 2000 Client
Posted: Wed 15 Jul 2009 23:06
Hi All,
We have a program (not built by us) which uses the dbExpress drivers to connect to a SQL Server 2005 backend.
When we install the product onto a Windows 2003 client machine it can connect to the database without any problems, however when we install the product onto a Windows 2000 client machine we keep getting the following errors.
Login failed for user 'xxxx'
Error: 18456, Severity 14, State: 8
State 8 according to MS suggests that the password we are entering is incorrect, however we have quadruple checked the password and it is correct further more the same password works when we use the Windows 2003 client.
From what I can tell we are using dbexpsda30.dll version 4.25.08.
Anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks
Rick
