OK, I ran a test page with a CFQUERY and I'm getting:

Login failed for user 'NT AUTHORITY\ANONYMOUS LOGON'

So is the LocalSystem account the problem? If I change the account, I'm
assuming I need to change the application server, RDS, Executive and
Graphing services as well? If I create a new user on the network, I'm
not sure what permissions I should give it to ensure that it can connect
to the SQL Server.

Thanks,
Kay.
