Question : SQL Server 2008 - Windows Authentication issue

My Windows Server 2008 runs SQl Server 2008. When loggin on the server with the Administrator account, I can open SQL Management Studio and connect to the Database Engine using Windows Authentication.

Now, I have created another Administrator user account named "master". When I log into the server with this account I cannot connect to the Database Engine using Windows Authentication. Since this new user account is an Administrator I cannot understand why?

Answer : SQL Server 2008 - Windows Authentication issue

SQL 2005/2008 removed builin administrators - for good reason. When logged in as "Administrator" account, add "master" account as a sysadmin.
