ASP.Net Web Site Administration Tool

Hi Folks, I could use some help if you have time. I have a server on my LAN at home running XP Pro, IIS 5.1, SQL, Server Express, And .Net FX 2.0. I'm trying to get the Web Site Administration Tool to work on the Lan. I'm using the server for testing.

I want to connect in the same manner as the link but connect to my server.

I have my site set up on the remote LAN server and everthing works great. I can set up new users from the Create User Wizard on one of the site pages. The new user can log in and everything works fine.

My current problem is that I can't access the site through the Web Site Administration Tool on my developement computer. I want to access the site to modify roles. users, etc. with the Tool.

When I open the Tool and click on "Security", I get a message Login failed for user ''me" The user is not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection.

cString is:

I don't know how to set a User ID and Password on the server for the connection. You have this command in your setup procedure:

aspnet_regsql.exe -S [DB Server Name] -U [DB login] -P [Password] -A all -d [Database name]

Can I use this on SQL Express? I don't know the syntax. Is it like this:

aspnet_regsql.exe -S myServer -U myLogin -P myPword -A all -d apsnetdb.mdf

I have <roleManager enabled="true" /> and <authentication mode="Forms"/> in the web.config and no providers listed in web.config

I cannot connect with various mods of the connectionString.

Can you help me, please?
