Environment	Product: Connect for ODBC SQL Server Wire Protocol Driver Version: 7.1 O/S: Windows Database: SQL Server Application: N/A

Question/Problem Description

Using Connect for ODBC SQL Server and NT Authentication, is it possible to provide login credentials from a remote system?

Steps to Reproduce

Clarifying Information

Is there a way to configure the driver to allow the Windows user credentials to pass through to a middle tier where the driver is being used to connect to a SQL Server database?

(client windows machine) ----> (middle tier web server app [ODBC Driver]) --------> SQL Server

Error Message

Defect Number

Enhancement Number

Cause

Resolution

There is not currently a way to supply remote Windows login credentials to the driver running on another system being used by a web server app.

With the driver configured to use NTLM (AuthenticationMethod=4). When the connection is made, the user is actually the host system user of the web server app host; not the Windows user of the remote client machine.

<User A> ----> <System User>
(client windows machine) ----> (middle tier web server app [ODBC Driver]) --------> SQL Server
