I'm developing a client/server application in VFP9SP2 with a SQL Server 2005 database backend using ODBC. The User Interface, business, and data access layers are logically separated but physically all currently reside in a single EXE.
The customer requires windows authentication and wants to use a service account for database access in SQL Server. I am currently storing encrypted copies of the User ID/Password for the service account and using api calls to LogonUser(), ImpersonateLoggedOnUser(), and RevertToSelf() wrapped around the call to SQLStringConnect(). What other options do I have for making the connection using the service account's credentials? Also, are there any negative side effects/consequences of the method I am currently employing? Thanks, Scott _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
