Sorry, I have done this before but I got a braincramp and forgot the
procedure: Im setting up an External Site for a company inside there DMZ (NO
COnnection to Internal Users). AD and WSS will be in the "Blue Zone" and
there is a seperate SQL Server in the DMZ that is part of a workgroup. How
can i set up the authentication to allow WSS and the workgroup SQL box to
communicate with each other for the WSS databases.
Currently I have set this up in a test VM setting using the "Network
Service" as the communication link. Thoughts..??

No im not a moron... i just play one on occasion :)

What about SQL authentication then? It will work regardless of your domain
setup.

Hi Bob,

All you have to do is to configure the app pool for your SharePoint
virtual
server to use a domain account which is granted Security Admins and
Database
Creators roles on the SQL box. This account also needs local admin or
power
user rights on the SharePoint box.

When

I'm not sure if you can do it in the web UI, but stsadm.exe allows to do
it.

run
