Hi guys,

I'm hoping someone here might have an idea / solution to the below.

On Monday, I went through the process of detaching and deleting a bunch of 
databases from our MOSS environment (these databases were duplicated and then 
we used the db attach method to upgrade them to SPS2010 last year)

Today, tech services brought to my attention a bunch of errors in the event log 
(I have no idea when they started, but the oldest records are from 4am 
yesterday - the events registered were coming through at around 4 per second, 
so my guess is the event log dropped older items)

Anyway, the specific errors are as follows:

Login failed for user DOMAIN\Acc1. Reason: Failed to open the explicitly 
specified database. [CLIENT: <local machine>]  (This is the DB server)
Login failed for user DOMAIN\Acc2. Reason: Failed to open the explicitly 
specified database. [CLIENT: 10.9.30.20]  (This is our IDX/CA server)

I've gone through this and related 
posts<http://www.eraofdata.com/sql-18456-login-failures/> and set up SQL 
Profiler to capture some info.

In all cases, the database mentioned as being unavailable is 'master' (see 
screenshot from SQL Profiler below). The ClientProcessID on the DB box 
correlates to the PID for SQLAGENT.EXE (I haven't checked the other box yet)

So far, I've changed the default databases for both accounts to a different 
database, given both accounts 'public' and 'db_datareader' to the master 
database, mapped them etc. all to no avail - the errors are still coming 
through constantly.

I'm unsure if detaching the old databases could have caused this, and I'm 
stumped as to how to fix it.
