    Koos147 - 2014-10-31

    All computers are member from the same domain
    I have one user account for all computers

    I created on my Windows 7 laptop a database with windows authentication
    When i try to open the database at the laptop everything works fine

    when i try to open it on my windows 8.1 Desktop i got the message "The compasite key is invalid!"
    When i try the Terminal server (2012R2) i got the same message

    is there a solution to fix this issue?

    Kind regards
    Mark

    The master key used by WUA is generated and stored on the local PC and is specific to that PC. It will not work on any other PC.

    You could use a Windows certificate via this plug-in to secure the database, but you need to be backup the certificate and use outside the domain may not be possible.
