When I try to setup the microsoft SQL Monitor, after I click on one of my instances, I get the login window, after I check the “Use Windows Authentication” i get the following error:<\/p>\n
Authentication failed. Check the login and password, and ensure that the server is configured for remote connections<\/p>\n
My question is where do I check the login and password?<\/p>\n
Thank you.<\/p>\n

Ok, I found the answer, when setting up spiceworks to run as a service, I did not specify any account to run the service, as a result the spicworks picked a local account and it did not have access to a lot of my network resources, including SQL server, to fix the problem I put in the right credential to run spiceworks as a service and restarted the server, problem solved.<\/p>\n

On the SQL Server open ‘SQL Server Enterprise Manager’<\/p>\n
Expand the tree until you get to the SQL Server in question then right click on it and select properties.<\/p>\n
Click on the Connections tab, and check ‘Allow other SQL Servers to connect remotely to this SQL Server using RPC’<\/p>\n

Oh sorry, you needed login and password help.<\/p>\n
Open the Enterprise Manager on the SQL Server, and browse to the Remote Servers option under the Security folder.<\/p>\n
in the right hand window, right click on the server and left click Properties.<\/p>\n
Let me know if that helped.<\/p>\n

Ok, got more info, I think the problem is in spiceworks and not the SQL server, I use the SQL management studio remotly so I’m sure that side is correct, but when I ran a trace on the SQL server, I see a falied login from ‘domain\\spiceserver1$’ user, which does not have access to SQL, is there any way that I can change spice works to use my login info instead of the spiceserver1 user?<\/p>","upvoteCount":0,"datePublished":"2010-01-15T12:18:57.000Z","url":"https://community.spiceworks.com/t/microsoft-sql-monitor-authentication/39552/6","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"hlondono","url":"https://community.spiceworks.com/u/hlondono"}},{"@type":"Answer","text":"
