SQL server and Windows authentication is basically mixed mode if both are
required.
The server name is what ever host you have installed this onto.
If your accessing it from the same host then your right, then it's
localhost.
SA could stand for service account. Basically the account that will be
used to access the database.

Subject: [Blind-sysadmins] SQL Server
Sent by: "Blind-sysadmins"
Hi folks,
I've been tasked to setup a Helpdesk for our company. I'm going with
nService,
http://www.avensoft.com/
The DB uses SQL. Thing is I've no idea about SQL Servers. I've
installed SQL Express by reading the nService RTM. OK, fine, it's
installed, and according to the Management and Config it's running.
The next few things I'm asked to do I'm confused about and can't find
the options for this.
Switch to SQL Server and Windows Authentication mode
Enable the "sa" account and set a password
Also I've no idea the name of the SQL Server to connect to it. Would
this just be local or locahost? If it's any good I've IIS installed and
running as well.
Can someone please tell me how I do this so I can continue with the
installation?
Cheers,
Barry.
