An error occured when creating database: Login failed for user '<domain\computername>$'.

I'm trying to get a sample site created using two servers, 1 hosting the web site, the other running the sql database. When I run the site for the first time and get to the database setup page I enter the details and select 'integrated user authentication' I get the error : An error occured when creating database: Login failed for user '<domain\computername>$'. When I select 'Use SQL Server account' I get: '...The user is not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection...'

I very keen to get this sorted as I have four sites in development ready to go to the production servers.

Both servers are running MS Windows 2003.

Hi Marty,

Thank you for your message. If you want to use Windows Authentication, you need to ensure that you have a login created on your SQL Server for the user account mentioned in the error message.

If you want to use SQL authentication, you need to configure your web site for mixed mode authentication. You can find more details here:
