Can't login with windows user

Why I can't login to a SQL database with windows username and password (both
in OLE DB and ODBC).
If I try with trusted connection (or windows authentication) with the same
user works, but if I write by hand user name (domain\user) and password I
get "Error in initilizing provider". With SQL users works.Hi,
For trusted connection you are not supposed to specify the user name and
password.
A single login to Operating system will give you access to SQL Server as
well. All you need is to click the "Windows Authentication" and click OK.
This will allow you to access the SQl Server with the credentials of
currently logged in OS user.
User name and password needs to be provided only for SQL server based
logins.
Thanks
