Can I see your <user> element? What are you specifying as the Domain?

"Thank you and well Done to the Wix development team for such a wonderful product. I can't thank you enough! Wix is the first thing I consider before building a new product, and I couldn't imagine my software development life without it!" ...and now a question: Is this a bug, or have I done something wrong with the User Element (Util Extension)? The IIS7 Application Pool's Identity (setup by Wix) is not authenticating with a SQL Server Login on the same box (also setup by Wix). "Login failed. The login is from an untrusted domain and cannot be used with Windows authentication. [CLIENT: <local machine>]" What really confuses me, is I can solve the above error by manually re-entering the User Identity of the Application Pool, using the exact username and password as Wix. So why is Wix failing me on something so trivial? The target computer is in a Workgroup, not a Domain, and I suspect this may be causative. The same Wix installation also setups the SQL Server Express Database, Login, Role and Permissions... although the Login is scripted and does not use the Wix User element (of course).
