Question

Guys,

SQL-server as "Cache Provider"

Im getting the below exception when i changed the application pool identity as "Network Service", it was working fine if the application pool identy is "ApplicationPoolIdentity".

Server channel security authorization failed for client {NT AUTHORITY\NETWORK SERVICE}. To grant access, use Grant-CacheAllowedClientAccount command

I have granted the account in the powersheel, In InetMgr my system name is
           Kumar(NMCINTRA\Venkata_kumar)

I have granted the account in powershell as follows NMCINTRA\Venkata_kumar, i crossed checked the account using Get-CacheAllowedClientAccounts also..is there any wrong in giving the account name ?

any one pls help me in understanding where im going wrong !!

any one faced this issue ?

Answer 2

you need to grant access to the account your cache client is using.

From the link

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff921012(v=azure.10).aspx

Note that if the client application is running as a built-in machine account, such as "NT Authority\Network Service", you can grant the machine access to the cache cluster. To do this, use the machine account, which is the domain name and machine name with an appended dollar sign. The following example grants cache cluster access to a machine named Server1 in a domain named DOMAIN1.

Grant-CacheAllowedClientAccount -Account "DOMAIN1\Server1$"
