Stored user names and passwords BROKEN in Vista

Posted: 03-13-2007, 05:39 PM
It seems that stored usernames and passwords no longer works in Vista (XP
works fine).

We use this feature to connect to SQL Servers using a particular UID/PW
combination so we dont have to use clear text authentication (i.e. SQL
Server Auth).

On XP we could create a wildcard domain and UID/PW and save it in "stored
user names and password" then the user could use for example iSQL or
Enterprise Manager to connect to the server via windows authentication.

If I try this with Vista it either sends my current domain id/pw OR (if
the machine is not in a domain) it seems to send NULL instead.

Anyone have any ideas on what/where something might be adjusted to fix this
issue ???
