Application Server authentication

Business Central/NAV Technical Forum

Hi.

I have a question regarding the Application Server, and its authenticaion with our Nav 5.0 database (SQL).

Currently, the domain account the service runs under has the required permissions setup in the SQL DB and within Navision.

I have read through the manual on the Nav 5.0 CD and there is nothing about using DB authentication. Is it possible to use SQL database authentication, rather than Windows authentication?

thanks, Mark

Yes, this is posible:

Condition: The user under which the service runs and the password must be equal to the SQL user and its password.

We are running a NAS at a customer site who does not have active directory installed using SQL quthentication that way.
