Hi All,

Thanks in advance for reading my post.
My goal: get a java based application to connect to my SQL server.

I'm working with a Java developer and he is trying to get his application connected to our 2000 SQL instance. The developer suggested setting the SQL instance to mixed mode authentication.

I'm looking for supported reasoning on our developers suggestion. Are there alternate ways or is there a proven method to get java working with SQL 2000?

Please bare with me as I'm still green in the DBA field. I'll be happy to supply more info to better solve this issue if needed.

Thanks again...
-mike

As I know, you can use windows authentication in jdbc.

Typically jdbc applications aren't on a Windows platform, so you'd need SQL authentication to connect. To switch to mixed-mode, right click on the server in Enterprise Manager, go to Properties, and then to Security.
