Failure to authendicate domain/users

I have several access databases in mind to migrate to SQL server. I installed MS SQL 2005 Express on my machine. I will have procedures to run with authorizations beyond that of a common user, such as database administrative work where server agent is not available, I may rely on users' log-on prompt to do some maintenance work. However, I cannot get the EXEC AS 'Domain\User' to work. The procedures can be created OK. But whenever they are called, the following message shows up:

Msg 15404, Level 16, State 19, Procedure XXX, Line 0
Could not obtain information about Windows NT group/user 'Domain\User', error code 0xea.

I tried to tweak with the account under which the server service is running. There are three options under built-in account: Local system, Local service, and Network Service. My understanding is that Network Service will use the log-on of the current user of the computer. I have admin right of the computer. None of the three options work. Additionally, when I specify an account (my own account), it's the same thing.

The procedure xp_logininfo always fails when I query a specific domain\user.

The ADHelper is configured to run manually.

I could not think of other ways to get a possible solution. Any help is much appreciated.

Hi, there,

I did several times. The problem is that the article does not contain an explanation of state 19. It has explanations for state 21 and above. Do you have any idea what state 19 relates to?

Thanks,
