I fail to see a line starting with Db-password: anywhere in my ar.cfg file.
I'm currently reinstalling the SQL 2005 tools on the AR System server to test connectivity via that vehicle. Further, I think I've written some java SQL 2005 jdbc connectivity apps that I might try as well.

[CLIENT: <IP address of AR Server>] where mscBase is the SQL login being used for this AR Server instance. This is where I came to question the password. I can reset the password for the mscBase SQL login all day long. But I don't know what password Remedy is trying to use for this SQL Login. It was specified during the initial AR Server installation many moons ago, and I'm not 100% certain that when I created the SQL login, I specified the correct password. SQL logs don't tell me why the login failed, just that it did. Perhaps I'll look into a previous post about deleting a line in ar.conf to force Remedy to use the old ARAdmin account and create said SQL login on the server.
