Here's a summary of how to setup integrated authentication between Novell's JDBC Driver and Microsoft SQL Server 2005. First, you should use the remote loader because the 2005 JDBC driver becomes a native driver (type 2) when you tell it to use sqljdbc_auth.dll for integrated authentication (read it's no longer Java so any bugs in said dll will abend the eDirectory process if it proves to be buggy). #) Copy sqljdbc_auth.dll into the root-level remote loader directory (e.g., c:\novell\remote_loader). #) Restart the remote loader service. #) The remote loader process has to run as the Windows user authenticating to the database. In this case, I created a user named Jason on both machines w/ the same password. Keep in mind, I'm not using a domain controller. The simplest way to do this is to login as the user and start the remote loader under the current session. #) Using Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio (Enterprise Manager + Query Analyzer all rolled-up in one), manually assign similar permissions you'd give to the "idm" user when using SQL Server authentication. For the sake of time, I made the Jason user a minor deity by granting him liberal permissions. #) There's a limitation in the existing Novell JDBC driver in that it requires a username. To work around this, go ahead and provide one even though it won't be used at authentication time. #) Set the integratedSecurity property in the JDBC URL to true. If you don't know what this means, consult Microsoft's documentation and it will make sense. #) Start the driver as usual and wallah, it works! Thanks to Jason Elsberry !!Windows 2000 MS SQL #.
