I've just ran into the exact same issue - I'd already created my database on a development SQL box inside our network that needs SQL authentication.

When I ran my app, no tables were created. I found this awesome but simple article about creating a Code First Database Initializer Strategy which first checks to see if the database exists and then runs a script against the database to create the tables.

As stated in the article - pay attention that when such a strategy is deployed, whenever the application starts over, all the database tables will be recreated! This strategy should only run once.

But you already knew that.
