Adding a User account

I have a user that is a local user on a machine. Is it possible that it coul
d
access SQL server on another machine, if they are both under the same domain
.
E.g.
User1 is on Box1
SQL Server is on Box2
Box1 and Box2 are both part of the Boxes domain.
Can I give User1 permission to access to a database on the Box2 SQL Server
without actually making User1 part of the Boxes domain as a user on its doma
inDoes this local user in Box1 has a valid domain user login in the Boxes
domain?
Anith|||No. User1 is only a user in Box1

authentication.

Server authentication with a valid SQL login and password instead.
