Does Sql Server 2008 have restrictions for the AD group name.I have an Windows group listed in the logingroup of ther server but none of the members of this AD are able to connect to the server.This AD group has spaces in its name(Eg-Ad group name is like this- "SQL TEAM MEMBERS")Whereas the same AD group members can access other instances in the server which use sql server 2005 version.Please suggest if any naming conventions exists for sql server 2008.

nope. it's not the spaces.

what is the exact error you're getting?

and when u added the group as a login to sql server, did you let SQL Server find it by searching AD?

And, did you give sufficient rights to the database server and databases for the group?
