Microsoft SQL Sever 2005 Express <> Mixed authentication.

Hello dear all,
I'm not sure if I'm posting to the right newsgroup,
if not please direct me to the right one.
I've installed "Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express",
and now I can log on only with windows authentication,
I tried to follow : http://support.microsoft.com/kb/269587/en-us
instructions, which says it's indeed for all versions of SQL Server,
but first I don't have Enterprise Manager, I have "SQL Server Configuration
Manager",
and in there I don't find "Server" group as it says to expand it.
so basically I cannot set authentication to mixed.
I need to log on with sql authentication not with windows one.
Help much appreciated.
Thanks
Hi George,
http://support.microsoft.com/default...;EN-US;q285097
INF: How to Change the Default Login Authentication Mode to SQL While
Installing SQL Server 2000 Desktop Engine by Using Windows Installer
<snip>
Another way to change the security mode after installation is to stop
SQL Server and set the appropriate registry key for your installation:
Default instance:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\MSSqlserver\MSSqlServer\Lo ginMode
Named instance:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server\Instance
Name\MSSQLServer\LoginMode
to 2 for mixed-mode or 1 for integrated. (Integrated is the default
setup for the SQL Server 2000 Data Engine.)
</snip>
Restart the service after this procedure.
HTH, jens Suessmeyer.
|||Hello Jens,
thank you very much for answering.
I don't have the registry keys that you mentioned.
1) HKLM\Software\Microsoft\MSSqlserver\MSSqlServer\Lo ginMode
I don't have this.
in my registry it goes till:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\MSSqlserver\ "here I've got only one entry" \Client
2)HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server\Instance
Name\MSSQLServer\LoginMode
I don't have this neither.
in my registry it goes till:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server\Instance
Names\ "and here I have just one entry" \SQL
Regards.
