interesting sql login issue

Hi all,
I have a SQL 2005 server running on SERVERA. I have the management studio
installed on my desktop (Windows XP Pro SP2) and connect to the sql server
using my regular domain login account (windows auth). This worked fine until
I had to change my domain user account's password as it had expired (we have
to change it every 90 days). Now, ever since then, I have been unable to
connect to the sql server in management studio. I get:-
Login Failed for user ''. Error: 18452
If I remote into the server and try to connect to sql it works fine (I am
member of local admin group on the server)
Any ideas'http://support.microsoft.com/kb/555332
Is it possible that you have your Windows auth password hardcoded somewhere?
When worse comes to worse, you may have to drop and re-create your login on
a
SQL Server.

It may also be worth a try of deleting the registration and
reregistering the server.

I have tried dropping and re-creating the login in SQL Server.

Integrating MSDE 2000 with VB Applications

Hi,
I have VB 6.0 application using MSDE 2000.
I created setup file using Package & Deployment Wizard.
I have included "SQL Server Desktop Engine Merge Modules" and
"sqlredis.exe".
However, when I try to test it on another computer, I get following error.
DBNETLIB[ConnectionOpen(Connect()).] SQL Server does not exists or access is
denied.
clicking OK comes up with
Runtime error -2147467259 (80004005)
Automation Error
Unspecified error.
What am I missing?
Any Idea? Let me know if further info needed.
