I am having trouble creating a way for my .adp file users to connect to my SQL Server. Any ideas on how to make this work?
 
The access should be the same as for any kind of ODBC connection. The problem is that if I set it up for NT Logon authentication. It seems to be failing for some users. If I set up an account for the connection, I would need to do this for every individual user. Isn't there some way to leverage the iis IUSER_ account for generic logon and give that account permissions for my DB? Any ideas would be welcomed.

THanks,
Kevin
 
never mind, I just update the connection settings with adding the password and marking it for allow saving. I guess the only problem is that it doesn't track individual user changes, but that should be okay since the original db didn't do that either.
