I am developing an application in VB.NET that is using a sql database. I am trying to start testing with multiple computers running the app while the database is on a remote computer. I have 2 desktop computers networked right now with 1 of them having the database and the other I want to run the program on. I am trying to figure out how to use windows authentication to login to sql server from the remote computer. I can login using Sql authentication but it is taking forever and I keep getting timeout errors so I wanted to try Windows Authentication to see if it is faster. If someone could walk me through the steps I need to take or give me some suggestions to fix my problems I would greatly appreciate it.

what auth mode you use has nothing to do with query perf.

the perf of a query has to do with the query itself, and what indexes are on the tables/views you are hitting.

Well what would cause it to take so much longer on the remote computer as opposed to when I am running the program on the same computer as the sql server database. When I use the local computer it is very fast but on the remote computer it times out.
