Ah, yes... so then you need to execute the SQL to add ASPNET as a login to
your DB and setup their DA permissions, etc. So launch "osql -S . -E" then
paste in this SQL and it should start working for you:
exec sp_grantlogin N'THOR\ASPNET'
exec sp_defaultdb N'THOR\ASPNET', N'pubs'
use pubs
exec sp_grantdbaccess N'THOR\ASPNET', N'ASPNET'
exec sp_addrolemember N'db_owner', N'ASPNET'
Replace THOR with your machine name and replace pubs with your database name.
One note is that this SQL adds ASPNET as dbo, so the ASPNET user has total
control over that DB. This is the fastest way to get it working, but I'd
suggest doing some research on SqlServer DB security to know how to scale
back the permissions for this user.

trying say "osql.exe /S", it tells me:
Error: no user selected. Try with -U or -E switches.

know the command line switches off the top of my head, so run
"osql.exe /?" to get a list of the commands.

http://staff.develop.com/ballen After installing MSDE2000 on my WIN XP machine, I created the
database from Access using the upsizing wizard. Although the tables
can be seen from the server explorer, I keep on encountering problem
in building my web application. The error message is "Login failed
for user\ASPNET".
I've tried to supply/not supply a username and password at the SQL
server login but both methods could not work. I did not create a
username and password during the upsizing process although I
specified a password during installtion of the MSDE2000. I even
uncheck the anonymous user option under the IIS->Directory Seucrity
but that did not help either.
What else can I do ?
