did smeone already use IE certificate to connect to IIS server ?

[tyris]

i have a iis server, a SQL server, and i need to identify the user that lunches
my web page. i don't want the use to enter a login + pass.

I SHOULD :
take the NT session to identify him (nt challenge/response)

BUT:
it doesn't works when the SQL server is separated from the IIS server


Is there a way with certificates to do the same ? did someone already use IE Certificates to connect to a IIS server ???

If so, please tell me what are the results for the SQL connexion after the Certificates authentication. What happens if the sql server is on an other
machine ??
If you can answer to only one of my question that's a lot for me !
Thanks

If you find an answer to this please let me know, because we found out that we need to have SQL installed, to keep track of the users that use our web pages, but they don't want to overcrowd the server, therefore it is going to be installed in another server. Thanks.
