Hello All,

I have a domain group account that I'm trying to connect to the database using SQL Server Management Studio and I get this error message "Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 18456". I'm able to connect to the database with my own credential, but not with the group domain account, does anybody know how to fix this problem? Please. Thanks.
