well - i want to thank everyone for the prompt replies on my problem
resolution. <yea right>
i finally figured out that for some reason - the install could not be
done under my domain account and so i created a local account - logged
into that account and installed db2, along with the sample databases.
i restarted my computer and logged back into my domain account - i can
get to the database but have to login in to the databases with the
local account to view anything. i tried to add the domain user thru
'authorities' - but it still gives me an error message.
again - thanks everyone! <NOT>

I believe that if you go into Widows Services and change the startup owner
of the DB2 processes, then it will work with your domain account. You may
have add your domain account to the DB2 group, but I don't recall if I did
this or not when I had the same problem and got it to work.

Well, I guess you got what you paid for.
If you need urgent support for a problem, use your support contract, not
a usenet group.
Seriously, though, did you make sure the domain ID you told DB2 to use
meets the requirements (either belongs to *local* administrators group,
OR has the various operating system privileges assigned to it)?

in answer to both of your questions:
I went into services and changed it to run under my domain account -
still did not work.
my domain account has local admin on my computer...but for some reason
i was unable to install DB2 with this account.-- while my office mate
had no problem using his domain account (we are in the same domain)
Thanks for your replies!
