Cannot get Windows and CSide clients connecting to container

[hamishab]

Hi,

We have been attempting to set Docker up on a Windows 10 pc and cannot get the Windows or C/Side client shortcuts to connect but the web client works fine.

Error Message (Windows client)

The program could not create a connection to the server. Would you like to try again?

Error Message (CSide client)

[Microsoft][SQL Server Native Client 11.0] SQL Server Network Interfaces: No credentials are available in the security package

Thanks for any help you can provide!

Did you provide your host windows credentials when deploying the container?
It looks like you used a different set of credentials.

[Koubek]

Or maybe you are not inside your domain network and the credentials cannot be validated. I think I was able to connect WebClient out of the domain but this wasn`t possible to achieve to in the case you I was entering C/SIDE.

[hamishab]

Thank you both. I think you are both correct. My laptop doesn't sit on a domain and instead uses Microsoft Online authentication. Would there be a workaround for this scenario besides spinning up a domain controller and connecting to that?

[freddydk]

You could use NavUserPassword authentication for your container.
When connecting to CSide, you would have to use username=SA and the same password as your user (that should also work if you setup windows auth).
