Problem with Windows Authentication

Hi All,

We're running v.370B on SLQ2000 and something really strange is happening just for me on our development system.
Since last week, when I log into this server, I get a message saying
The combination of User ID and password is not valid. Try again.

This is really weird as nothing appears to have changed.
On further investigation, it appears that the passthrough is changing my user id to my admin account :?:
Using the same client, I can access the production server ok (without my user id changing). I've tried deleting the zup file but this makes no difference. It does appear to be something realted to my Pc as it works ok if I log in via Citrix to this server.

Any ideas on what is causing this? And how to resolve?

Thanks,

Rob.

    May be that the shortcut you are using to run the client is using "run as" command? Try to recreate the shortcut once again...

    Thanks for the suggestion - but I tried that already.
    One of my collegues found the problem for me ...

    It was an automated "Remember Me" thing in Windows, I'd attached to the server to view a folder and ticked the box and apparently this overides all logins to the server from that point and not just the folder I was looking at!

    Even in SQL Server Enterpruise Manager, it thought I was my Admin account ](*,)

    All ok now, thanks for the reply.
