PROBLEM: after creating a brand new DNN Application framework site, and connecting to the database using SQL Server Management Studio, the application can no longer connect to the database: "Cannot open user default database. Login failed. Login failed for user '[machinename]\ASPNET'."

I have been able to reproduce this problem with a completely "virgin" site using Shaun's recipe for getting started with DNN development - here's what I've done:

1. Install DNN 4.5.5 Starter Kit

2. Open visual Web Developer & create a new DNN Application framework

3. Compile, open site in browser, create default site, etc.

(so now I have a completely "green" DNN 4.5.5. install working just fine)

4. Open SQL Server Management Studio & connect to the SQLEXPRESS instance on my machine

5. Attach the database.mdf in the APP_DATA directory

6. Go to browser & refresh home page of the brand new working DNN site

7. Site now reports "Cannot open user default database. Login failed. Login failed for user '[machinename]\ASPNET'."

8. Exit SQL Server Management Studio & Visual Web Developer (to ensure they aren't holding db open)

9. Restart IIS

10. Restart SQLEXPRESS service

No good.  Nothing I do makes the site come back.

Please advise.
