SQL Server Error 18456

[rsbutterfly16 via AccessMonster.com]

I'm running an Access 2000 Database on Windows 2000. The Access Database
links to SQL Server 2000 tables. The error occurs when the users login with
their windows login (my sql server is mixed authentication) and open the
database to open the tables or forms. The connection will fail with the
following:

Connection failed:
SQLState '28000'
SQL Server Error 18456
[Microsoft][ODBC SQLServer Driver][SQL Server]Login failed for
user 'xy'.





I used in the Data Source set up and tested the connection and I have as
WindowsNt authentication using the network login ID. All these users are in
added to sql server as users for these database using windows authentication.


The users belong to the group in sql server "users" , when i add the
"administrator" group to their login then they can login without anyproblems
but for obvious security reasons i have to take them out of the
administrator's group.

Is there anything else to check for?

Thanks in advance.
