Figure 3.84: Specifying the user name and password to host the <strong>eG</strong> database on an MS SQL server with Windows<br />

Only Authentication enabled<br />

Note:<br />

If MS SQL Server 2008 is being used as the <strong>eG</strong> backend, then ensure that the password<br />

provided in Figure 3.83 is a strong password. Strong passwords are defined by the following<br />

parameters:<br />

Has at least 6 characters<br />

Does not contain "Administrator" or "Admin"<br />

Contains characters from three of the following categories:<br />

1. Uppercase letters (A, B, C, and so on)<br />

2. Lowercase letters (a, b, c, and so on)<br />

3. Numbers (0, 1, 2, and so on)<br />

4. Non-alphanumeric characters (#, &, ~, and so on)<br />

Does not contain the corresponding username<br />

For instance, if the name of the special database user is egdb, then the password that you<br />

set for this user should be a strong password such as, db123$%#@.<br />

Note that without a ‘strong password’, the <strong>eG</strong> manager installation will fail.<br />
