Hello, I've set up a few two node active/passive SQL 2000 clusters in the past but now a client is asking for a two node SQL 2005 active/passive cluster.

SQLServer Agent Properties/Connection/Windows-SQL Auth
Posted by shorefisher at 1/11/2006 12:15:55 PM
Books online says clearly that on the SQLServer agent properties (Connection tab) you should select Windows authentication if you are running on NT or Windows 2000. It doesnt't say why.
