I have a SQL 2016 server running GP 2016 16.00.0864 (r2)
On the server all GP logins work normally.
From a client computer only "sa" works, all others fail without regard to Role.
Go to one of your workstations. Log into GP as 'sa' and set a user's password. Then try to login as this user on this workstation.
So simple and yet eluded me completely.
Thanks, Richard
Encrypted passwords are a wonderful thing.
Tom,
What this means is that your ODBC connection string is different on the server and on the workstation, which is not a good thing.. technically it should be identical everywhere to avoid exactly this type of issues..

Also you can use GP Power Tools - Database Validation tool to reset all passwords.
