Hi,
I get this error message when I try and create a new user in MS SQL Server 2000 by attempting to create a new user with / in the SQL Server Enterprise Manager. I know that the domain name and username is valid.
ERROR 15401: Windows NT User or Group ‘/‘ not found. Check the name again.
Here is the setup:
I have Win 2K Server with MS SQL Server 2000 installed. That server is part of a standard group called WORKGROUP. However, it is not joined on any domain for security reasons (it is a web server).
I have a corporate network that is on a domain, .com. Is there a way to get the Win 2k box to at least recognize the domain without physically joining the domain tree through system properties settings?
I have scoured the net for a fix or how to’s on configuration, but with little or no luck. Has anyone figured out a way around without joining the domain tree through other means other than through system properties settings?
Any ideas or workarounds?
-E
