a. Create a text file.
b. Copy the following entries (in bold) and paste in the text file (it is very important to keep these entries as it is with the blank spaces and line breaks):
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa]
“lmcompatibilitylevel”=dword:00000000
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa\MSV1_0]
“ntlmminclientsec”=dword:00000000
“ntlmminserversec”=dword:00000000
c. Save the file as ntlm.reg.
d. Double click on ntlm.reg and click “Yes” in the dialog box that appears next asking you whether you want to save the changes in the registry.
Note: Please ensure that the first line of your .reg file reads “Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00” for Windows 2000, Windows XP and Windows Server 2003 based machines or “REGEDIT4” for Windows 98 and Windows NT 4.0 based computers.
]]>For servlet:
out.println (”<script>”);
out.println (”window.opener = top;”);
out.println (”window.close()”);
out.println (”</script>”);
For html or jsp:
<script>
window.opener = top;
window.close();
</script>
NT security mode (Windows NT Authentication only):
It is related to windows domain. Access will be given to existing domain user account.Using those credentials, user can access the database.Separate account is not created as in other databases.
Mixed mode (Windows NT Authentication and SQL Server Authentication)
In these modes, both domain accounts and database accounts can be used to access the database.
JDBC drivers available for Microsoft SQL Database Server 2000:
1. JTDS Driver
JTDS driver works in both NT security mode and mixed mode.
2. Microsoft SQL Server JDBC Driver
MS SQL server JDBC driver works in mixed mode only.
Connection strings used for NT security mode using JTDS driver:
Ex:
con = java.sql.DriverManager.getConnection(”jdbc:jtds:sqlserver://servernaem or IP address:port no/database name;user=domain username;password=password;domain=Domain name”);
This string works in both windows and non-windows. This is not ntlm authentication method.
or
con = java.sql.DriverManager.getConnection(”jdbc:jtds:sqlserver://servernaem or IP address:port no/database name;”);
This method uses NTLM authentication. So NTLMauth.dll has to be copied to the system path. [ It is available along with JTDS driver. ]
Trouble shooting:
The above errors occur, when you try to access the ms sql database from remote machines or applications.
2. You may be trying to access the database using database account and ms sql server might have been set to NT security mode.
3. User is accessing the database from windows domain account and he has access to it. But still getting error message means, he didn’t implement NTLM method correctly or didn’t give correct credentials. Please check the connection strings given in above section.
