ISSUE:
After applying Version 2 patch of Portalshield for WSS 3.0, you my see the following error:
-
Event ID
3351 - SQL database login failed. Additional error information from SQL
Server is included below. Login failed for user 'NT
AUTHORITY\ANONYMOUS LOGON'
-
Event ID 1000 - (#50070 "Unable to connect to the database "<database name>" on "<remote SQL server name>")
These error may occur every 5 mins in your event logs.
FIX:
Run the SETSQLACT tool at the command prompt to select the appropriate account:
- Click Start, Run, type cmd click OK.
-
At the prompt, type the appropriate command below and press ENTER:
CD \Program Files\Network Associates\McAfee PortalShield\bin (For PortalShield 1.x installations)
CD \Program Files\McAfee\McAfee PortalShield\bin (For PortalShield 2.x installations)
-
Type the following command and press ENTER:
SETSQLACT.EXE
- Type the name of the account that has access to the remote database and is a member of the Local Administrators group and press ENTER.
Keep this command session open as it will be used later in this procedure.
Modify the registry:
- Click Start, Run, type regedit and click OK.
-
Navigate to and select the appropriate registry key below:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Network Associates\McAfee PortalShield (For PortalShield 1.x installations)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\McAfee\McAfee PortalShield (For PortalShield 2.x installations)
-
In the right pane, click Edit, New, DWORD value.
-
Name the new DWORD value ODForceImpersonate and set the Value data to 1.
-
Close Regedit.
At the command prompt:
-
Type the command below and press ENTER to restart Microsoft IIS:
IISRESET
-
Wait for the prompt stating Internet services successfully restarted, then close the command session.
Restart the PortalShield service:
- Click Start, Settings, Control Panel, Administrative Tools, Services.
- Right-click the McAfee PortalShield service and select Restart.
- Close the Services window.
This fix was initially used to fix the same issue in PortalShield for WSS 2.0, I came across the same problem for PortalShield for WSS 3.0 after applying Version 2 patch and the same fix resolved my issue for MOSS. The fix is listed on the Macfee site but only references PortalShield for WSS 2.0.
