Setting connection properties
The first wizard step allows you to set connection properties for the new database.
MS SQL Maestro allows you to connect to Microsoft SQL servers using Windows and SQL Server authentication modes.

Windows Authentication (more preferable)
Microsoft Windows Authentication mode allows a user to connect through a Windows user account.
SQL Server Authentication
When a user connects with a specified Login name and Password from a non-trusted connection, SQL Server performs the authentication itself by checking to see if a SQL Server login account has been set up and if the specified password matches the one previously recorded.
Check the Create profile after creating the database option to open the Edit Database Profile dialog after the new database is created.
