Specifies the user account used to connect to the computer running SQL Server (specified by the SQLServer property) using SQL Server authentication. The DBPwd property provides the password for the user account in the DBID property.

Note   SQL Server authentication is not as secure as Integrated Windows authentication. Integrated Windows authentication is the recommended authentication method. Using the DBID and DBPwd properties stores the credentials in clear text in the CustomSettings.ini file and therefore is not secure. For more information about using Integrated Windows authentication, see the SQLShare property.

Note   This property is configurable only by manually editing the CustomSettings.ini and BootStrap.ini files.
