Is it possible to make IIS authenticate the user against local machine accounts located on a SQL Server machine?The reason I'm asking is that where I am working they have a SQL Server 2000 database server that contains local Groups and user accounts. The asp.net applications here impersonate the current user in order to connect to the database.The problem with this is that it does not secure the website. It only secures the database.I suggested that they convert all the local groups stored on the SQL server machine to Global Groups, but they don't want to. they also don't want a copy of the groups placed on the IIS box. |
