Multiple server access to one client

  • Can you elaborate a bit?

    There is a windows client domainx\userA on client Z on domainx

    That has acces to server 1,2,3,4,5,6,7

    Question:

    If i move the user from client Z to client W, do I need to move server 1,2,3,4,5,6,7 ?: Normally not, the user is still in the same domain. Servernames aren't changed so there wouldn't be a lot of configuration changes. The login domainx\userA still works on 1,2,3,4,5,6,7

     

  • Hi Expert,

     

    Is AD account changes  or Sql server changes

  • Test before you try this

    Now it is more clear (misread domainy). You want to change the domain of the client and make sure the acces to the original sql servers (domainx) still works.

    If there is an AD-trust between domainx and domainy, the client can still authenticate to domainx ( domain sql server). If you used windows groups for rights-management, you'll will only have to add domainy\user to the original windows group (if domainx continues to exists). Without groups you might get by with renaming the logins on the several sql server instances. Safer option: create new logins

    With no AD-trust, you'll have to resetup all your sql server to the new domainy  or work with sql server authentication. In both cases you'll have new users
