SSPI Context Errors

Colin Smith Profile: Colin Smith

I recently changed a SQL server from running as Local System to running as a domain account. When I did this I started to get the dreaded “Unable to Generate SSPI Context” error. I tried all that I could think of and had discussion with some people on Twitter as to what the issue may be. Eventually I had to open a case with MS to get it resolved. I had to use ADSI Edit to add the SPN’s to the service account manually. Once I did that Kerb auth started working but I am still not able to fall back to NTLM if needed. I will hopefully have more information on all that soon as I am going ot continue to work with MS and find the root of all this evil.
