Dial Up Users don't automatically connect to Domain Member..

I have 40 sales people who dial in from different states.
The Dial Up configuration is as follows:

The remote users dials up to our modem pool which has only
a total of 8 simultaneous 28.8 connections. They then
logon on the our Windows NT 4.0 SP6 PDC server and should
connection automatically to our SQL database server that
resides on a Member server under the PDC server.

HOWEVER, some remote users succeed in dialing up to the
Remote Server PDC but don't connect to the SQL 7 member
server. I don't want to have to take extra steps to
create a Batch file that maps to the member server.

If you could help me to resolve this problem, I would
greatly appreciated it!!!

Thanks.

t is the error you are getting when the users try to connect to the SQL 7
member server?

Any event logs?

Manjari,

I had to make an incident call to Microsoft to resolve
this problem because the Sales people needed to get their
information download immediately. I learned that because
the remote users' laptop are local instead of join to the
Corp. Domain. Therefore in order for them to access the
SQL 7 member server in this Domain after they dial in I
needed to Add them as Local accounts in the member server.

Eveything is working great. I know I didn't give you much
time to respond, but very thanks for you response.
