Integrated Kerberos Authentication (OLE DB)

This sample shows how to get mutual Kerberos authentication by using OLE DB in SQL Server Native Client. This sample works with SQL Server 2008 or later.

For more information about SPNs and Kerberos authentication, see Service Principal Name (SPN) Support in Client Connections.

Example

You must specify a server. In the .cpp file, change "MyServer" to a machine name that has an instance of SQL Server 2008 (or later).

You will also have to specify a customer-provided SPN. In the .cpp file, change "CPSPN" to a customer-provided SPN.

Make sure your INCLUDE environment variable includes the directory that contains sqlncli.h. Compile with ole32.lib oleaut32.lib.

// compile with: ole32.lib oleaut32.lib
#pragma once

#define WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN   // Exclude rarely-used stuff from Windows headers
#include <stdio.h>
#include <tchar.h>

         goto CleanUp; \
      } \
