BUG: Trusted RPCs from NT to OS/2 Fail with Error 7221

Last reviewed: April 29, 1997
Article ID: Q111400

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft SQL Server, version 4.2

BUG# NT: 670 (4.2)

SYMPTOMS

When issuing an RPC from a NT SQL Server to an OS/2 SQL Server with a mapped trusted account on the remote machine, the execution attempt fails with the following error:

   Msg 7221, Level 14, State 2:
   Login to site "<remote server>" failed.

This happens only if the password for the local account is different from the password on the mapped account on the remote machine.

WORKAROUND

As a workaround, change the passwords on both servers to be the same.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft SQL Server version 4.2. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
