I'm facing a problem that when I try to connect to the SQL Express instance from client to server. The Server logs an error:

SSPI handshake failed with error code 0x8009030c, state 14 while establishing a connection with integrated security; the connection has been closed. Reason: AcceptSecurityContext failed. The Windows error code indicates the cause of failure. The logon attempt failed
[CLIENT: 192.168.245.50]

The account I log on with is sysadmin and have all the possible permissions on the database its trying to connect to but still it fails. But if I add the user that is trying to connect to the local administrators group it works. This is not a good solution, I don't want all users to be local administrators on the server. Why is it that the user needs to be local admin?

And I think the SPN is correctly set.

Its all in same domain and using domain accounts. Windows Autentication is used for login.
Shouldnt be problem with the connectivity to the DC. Named instances name is used (it works if the domain user is local admin).

Log from SQL error log:

  • Is it a windows domain account, a local windows account, or a sql auth account? Are you both on the same domain? Any issues with connectivity to the domain controller? Are you specifying the instance name when connecting? Can you provide the error messages from the SQL Server error log, which may contain a little more detail? (The state in SQL Server's error log will be something other than 14, which I believe in the error message your client is showing is actually the severity.) Mar 9, 2015 at 14:18

  • So here is a clue: The login is from an untrusted domain... have you considered using SQL auth remotely if you can't set up domain trusts / Kerberos etc. between the two machines? Mar 9, 2015 at 15:19
  • It's Dyanmics AX POS client, I cant use SQL auth. It´s the same domain. If i login with my own account that is local admin on the SQL server it works. Mar 9, 2015 at 15:23
  • It doesn't seem like SQL Server thinks the account is coming from the same domain. Mar 9, 2015 at 15:31

I found a solution to this problem.

I added the domain user to: Local Security Policy -> Local Policies -> User Rights Assignment -> Access this computer from the Network
