AD based native SQL server connection on EA16
« on: November 17, 2022, 09:26:59 pm »
Hi guys,
I saw that on EA16 we had a new native connection feature.
We currently have a sql server based repository with one DB per project. Users are authentified direct within SQL server with AD groups.
User XX is in AD group PROJECTA which has access to DB PROJECTA.
Previously with Data Link Properties we had an option to use integrated security but I don't find it for native connections.
Has it disappeared ?

Many thanks

You can still connect the to the server like you did before.
The new "native" connections are an extra way to connect, not the only way.

If you choose Custom Data Source instead of Server Connection then you get the old dialog. No it's not obvious!

Hi Geert,
I know but I was interested connecting "the native way" with AD because I have some problems with "Data Link Properties" way, especially a problem already documented here : https://sparxsystems.com/forums/smf/index.php/topic,41896.0.html

Many thanks
