Remarks

To facilitate connections between instances of Microsoft SQL Server, SQL Server uses remote-server naming. When an action of a client at the named remote server directs a connection to the local instance of SQL Server, the remote server attempts to connect using the login authentication data of the client. Login record mappings at the local instance determine the treatment of that authentication data.

If TRUE, the local instance evaluates the password part of authentication data. For the connection to succeed, the password used by the login on the remote server must be the password used by the mapped local login record.

If FALSE, the local instance does not evaluate any password provided as part of the server-initiated connection attempt.
