>The Server Agent is on, and I have set up user accounts with access to the database etc. How do I allow SQL authentication other than that. I know that when a database is being set up, there are places where you can inticate the authentication, buyt I am not sure where to do it after the fact. I have looked in the help guide, but have been unable to pull that info out of the huge listing that comes up under this topic.

Rollin,
In the EM right click on the Sql Server, select Properties and switch to Security tab. Make sure that Authentication is set to 'SQL Server and Windows'.
