Moving BCM Database to new SQL 2005 Server

I have installed SBS Server 2003 Premium which has MS SQL 2005. Using the BCM toolkit for Outlook 2007 I created a new database. The client Outlook 2007 can access the empty database fine. If I add a contact it appears fine.

I then used the same utility to backup the database on the old server, move the backup file to the new server and then again using the tool did a restore. The restore completed successfully. When I access BCM from the client Outlook 2007 I do not see any of the contacts.

I can actually browse the database using the "SQL 2005 Server Manager" and can see the restored contacts. Using the BCM Toolkit utility I have used the tool to share the database and find the user in the list. I have even cleaned out the user list and rebuilt it on the new server.

It appears to be a permissions issue but can't seem to get access to the old contacts.

Any suggestions?
