1- Windows Authentication ModeIn Windows mode users who have access to particular domain can connect to it you do not have to specify a login name and password, to connect to SQL Server. here server will manages all activities but certain time if there is network connection problem, you cannot access from windows authentication mode (Window authentication ex- lotus notes, outlook express) Works best when the database is accessed within the organization only2 - Mixed Mode Authentication ModeIn Mixed Mode users from both Windows Mode and Sql Server Authentication can login. Sql server logins means users from private network or outside of companies network.In Mixed Mode dba has to create Login and Password for sql server authenticationWorks best when outside users may access the database or when you don't use Windows domains |
