There is one other thing that might cause this behaviour with ntserver and this is if you have not specified "use local users...". Then the user is checked against a domain and this might cause the problems. If you use the local users and are sitting at the server console and are a local admin, then you should get the connection to work. Don't know whty this failed, but since you are now fine with sspi - what the heck... /Bo (Bo Berglund, developer in Sweden)
