    Windows Domain Problems

    Hello,

    I have installed DB2 on a Windows2000 system. I set the authentication
    to client and have all clients trusted.

    I can not seem to connect to the database as the user logged into the
    database. In other words if I am logged into the network as user-a, I
    can connect to the database as user-b but not as user-a. If I log on
    to the network as user-b then I can connect to the database as user-a
    but not user-b. This occurs on workstations or on the server.

    The network is a single domain network.

    Any suggestions on how to fix this?

      If the user id that was used to install DB2 was more than 8 characters, you
      need to uninstall and install again. In addition to being 8 or less
      characters, the install user should have domain administrator authority.

          On Windows it's not the username but the group which must be 8 or
          less characters, check http://tinyurl.com/rrwe .

              On the server DB2 must run under a suitable non-SYSTEM domain account. See
              docs for full privilege list.
              On the client, DB2 Security Service must be started (Startup
              Type=Automatic) .
              User must be logged on to the domain (domain\user-a).
