Hey all

I have setup Dnn on winxp a hundred times but this is the first time i try on windows 2003.

I have Sqlserver 2005 and where i would normally add the aspnet_user i have added iusr_machinename to an sql login and made the login available in the dnn database

The connection string i think is ok, the database is setup for windows authentication and so i have configured the connection string appropriately, yet i get this old error:

ERROR: Could not connect to database specified in connectionString for SqlDataProvider

Any ideas on what the error could be for? The only difference is on windows 2003 i cant find the aspnet user to add to the database, thats the only difference to what i do normally.. please help if you can..thanks andy

do not use  iusr_machinename but "Network Service"
