How Can I Prevent My Co-Workers From Accessing My SQL Instance..
Hi all
In our office we have simple Network (LAN) and for some reason in each workgroup Computer in this network we have installed SQL-Server 2000.
So far everything was ok but recently i noticed that my co-workers can easily access my Sql Server Instance through their Enterprise manager installed on their computers and then they can open my tables,view...and manipulate other objects.
for better illustration i have created a Flash Movie from this process , please check the following Link :

Probelm Accessing Sql Instance
Hi , I just put my files up on a web server. I can view my aspx pages..but when I try to login to the website I get the following; An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified) Can you help? I can understand that it cannot find the specified instance of sql server, however I don't remember ever configuring it look to at a specific sql server. When i created the site in web dev express edition and added the login controls and set the asp config tool to use internet security it created the database itself and so I didn't have to put a connection string in. I also cannot see a connection string in tthe web.config file. The aspnetdb.mdf file is there on the server. is this something i need to configure with the hosting company or do i set it in my webconfig file. Thanks

Accessing SQL2005 As A Second Instance To SQL2000
I'm having trouble accessing SQL2005 Standard Edition as a secondinstance of SQL Server where the first instance is SQL 2000 EnterpriseEdition. I installed SQL 2005 as a named instance "SQL2005". Theserver is running Windows 2000 SP4 ON A 32-Bit machine. When I look inServices I see the SQL Server (SQL2005), SQL Server Agent (SQL2005)services there. I went into SQL Server Configuration manager anddisabled the named pipes protocol and only have TCP/IP and by defaultShared Memory enabled to rule out that named pipes is causing theproblem. In SQL Server Configuration Manager I created an alias"computername$SQL2005" and was able to connect to database engine"computernameSQL2005" through SQL Server Management Studio WHILE ONTHAT BOX.But when trying to access the 2005 instance from another server(64-bit Windows 2003 SP1) I'm having trouble. On the 64-bit machine Idisabled the named pipes protocol for both "SQL Native ClientConfiguration (32-bit)" and "SQL Native Client Configuration". Under32-bit I created the alias "machinename$SQL2005" to point to the IPaddress of the 32-bit machine. In SQL Server Management Studio whentrying to connect to the database engine "machinename$SQL2005" itdefaults to the SQL 2000 instance. How do I access the SQL2005instance from a remote server?Any help would be appreciated.Mike

Uninstalling SQL Server 2000 Instance On A Mulitple Instance Platform From Command Line
I have a situation where we need to uninstall a SQL Server 2000 instance from the command line using the REMOVE=ALL option along with the INSTANCENAME option in the uninstall process. This must be done from the command line and not through the operating system. We will then install a SQL Server 2005 instance to replace the old SQL Server 2000 instance. My question is whether or not performing an uninstall using the mentioned options will "break" other SQL Server 2000 instances on this server or will they continue to function normally? I know under SQL Server 2005 the REMOVE=ALL option will remove all the shared components and certain instances will be "broken"; does the same thing happen in SQL Server 2000?

Migrating From SQL2K Named Instance To SQL2K5 Default Instance
Hi, I have a task in hand to migrate (upgrade) from SQL2K named instance to SQL2K5 default instance. There are many intranet applications touching current SQL2K. I would like to perform this upgrade such that I don't have to touch any application code - meaning I don't have to change the connectionstring to point to new Default instance. How can I achieve this? So, in otherwords, here is what I want to achieve: Current Server: SQL2K: SERVER_AINSTANCE_A (named instance) Upgraded Server: SQL2K5: SERVERB (default instance) If I have both default, I could achive this by setting up DNS alias after migration done so that any call for SERVER_A would point to SERVER_B. But in my case, I don't have SERVER_A, I have named instance. Is there any solution? Regards, Vipul

How To Move A Single Database From SQL Server Instance To New SQL Instance
Hi, I want to move one database from the source SQL Server 2000 instance to a new SQL 2000 instance in another machine. I have five user databases in this source SQL instance. How should be my approach to move this single database out of this ? My understanding is restoring this database in the new instance, copying all logins to the new instance and then copying the jobs, DTS packages, alerts, operators only specific to this database will do it. Please let me know if this is exactly what I should do .. Thanks in advance.. Regards, Himansu

Named Instance Problems (Default Of 7.0/2000 Instance)
I am trying to set up a Named Instance of SQL 2000 on the same machine that has a default instance of SQL 7.0. The setup always completes and I am able to register the Named Instance of the SQL Server with which it was installed on. However, when I try to connect the users to the database, with both windows and SQL authentication, I receive a SQL server not found error. I have tried an alias setup as well as physically specifying the port number in settup up an ODBC connection. Has anyone ran into similar problems? Also, has anyone been able to successfully complete the process as mentioned above?

Migrating From Named Instance To Default Instance
I installed SQL Server 2005 recently on a cluster. I didn't go for the default instance and instead I named the instance option. Now I would like to migrate everything from the named instance to the default instance, which I haven't yet installed. Is this an easy process? What about the logins and the maintenance plans and jobs? Is there anything else I need to be aware of?

Create A Named Instance On Top Of A Default Instance
Hi I've never had to do this, but when I downloaded the Web Workflow Approvals Starter Kit, it requested that I install the database into a User Instance of .SQLEXPRESS. Now the problem is, I've installed it onto a default instance, so I was wondering whether you can create a named instance on top of a default instance... and if so, how would you do that?

Single Instance/Multiple Instance/Virtualization Q
I work for a mid size company with the usual collection of enterprise applications. We are trying to consolidate our SQL environment consisting of around 100 databases none of which are over 100GB with the average database size around 5GB. Recently a large server was purchased as the "Big Daddy" SQL box. Obviously not all the databases will be moved to this one box but within reason a number can. My question: What is the best way to configure the box? 1 OS & 1 Default Instance - How do we isolate loops memory leaks etc... 1 OS & Multiple instances, ie:Dedicated instance for each application. - How do you allocate CPU & memory, allow for optimum performance without putting others at risk from a rouge process? Virtualized OS for each application with a default instance - Too much overhead impacts performance? Future plans include offsite replication, perhaps mirroring with failover. I'd appreciate anyone else's thoughts ideas? How have you tackled this problem in your environment? Thanks Scott

SQL Injection - How To Prevent It?
I am building my first ASP.Net app from scratch and while working on the DAL I came across the problem of SQL Injection. I searched on the web and read different articles but I am still unsure about the answer. My question is should I add db.AddInParameter(dbCommand, "AvatarImageID", DbType.Int32, avatarImageID); Add in Parameters to my C# code to avoid SQL Injection. What is the best practice. I am unclear if the stored procedure already helps me avoid SQl Injection or if I need the add in parameters in the C# methods to make it work. I need some help. Thanks, Newbie My C# update method in the DAL (still working on the code) private static bool Update(AvatarImageInfo avatarImage) { //Invoke a SQL command and return true if the update was successful. db.ExecuteNonQuery("syl_AvatarImageUpdate", avatarImage.AvatarImageID, avatarImage.DateAdded, avatarImage.ImageName, avatarImage.ImagePath, avatarImage.IsApproved); return true; } I am using stored procedures to access the data in the database. My update stored proc set ANSI_NULLS ON set QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON GO ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[syl_AvatarImageUpdate] @AvatarImageID int, @DateAdded datetime, @ImageName nvarchar(64), @ImagePath nvarchar(64), @IsApproved bit AS BEGIN -- SET NOCOUNT ON added to prevent extra result sets from -- interfering with SELECT statements. SET NOCOUNT ON; BEGIN TRY UPDATE [syl_AvatarImages] SET [DateAdded] = @DateAdded, [ImageName] = @ImageName, [ImagePath] = @ImagePath, [IsApproved] = @IsApproved WHERE [AvatarImageID] = @AvatarImageID RETURN END TRY BEGIN CATCH --Execute LogError SP EXECUTE [dbo].[syl_LogError]; --Being in a Catch Block indicates failure. --Force RETURN to -1 for consistency (other return values are generated, such as -6).

Prevent SP Compilation
Hi,I'm using SQL Server 2000 MSDE on a laptop running Windows XP.I have a couple of SP's that that quite some time to compile. So I waswondering: is there any way to have the database *not* recompile them everytime after a reboot?BOL says: "As a database is changed by such actions as adding indexes orchanging data in indexed columns, the original query plans used to accessits tables should be optimized again by recompiling them. This optimizationhappens automatically the first time a stored procedure is run afterMicrosoft® SQL ServerT 2000 is restarted."Now the SQL Server is restarted a lot, because laptops don't have endlessbatteries <g>Cheers,Bas

Prevent Duplication On UPDATE
Hello I noticed a spelling mistake in the data in a column of several tables, I used the following syntax to alter the spelling: UPDATE [dbo].[Prod_Cat] SET [ProdName]=N'merseyside' WHERE ProdName = 'mmserseyside' The above code correctly updated the spelling error, but it also inserted a new row with the corrected data. So I found myself with two Identical rows containing the corrected information. I had to manually delete the extra row. Because if I had put in a DELETE statement, I would have then lost both rows. What do I need to do to prevent this happening next time. As I find that I need to update the names of some products, but I don't want to duplicate them. Thanks Lynn

How Do I: Prevent Race Condition?
I want to be able to read and update a value in the database without entering a race condition. For example: User #1 reads a row from the database, changes a value then writes the value back. User #2 reads the same row AFTER user #1 has read it, but BEFORE user #1 writes it back. User #2 then changes the value and writes it back, overwriting the value that user #1 wrote. I thought I could do this with transactions, but it just makes user #2 wait until user #1 is done writing before user #2 can write. It doesn't stop user #2 from reading while user #1 has it out. Does that make sense?

What Are Sql Injection Attacks And How To Prevent?
this is a question I put in the sql community in microsoft, but havent be answered in full ------------ I am using dynamic sql to do a query with differents 'order' sentences and/or 'where' sentences depending on a variable I pass to the sp ex: create proc ex @orden varchar(100) @criterio varchar(100) as declare consulta varchar(4000) set consulta=N'select pais from paises where '+@criterio' order by '+@orden ------------ I'd like to know it it uses 2 sp in the cache, as I read, the main sp and the query inside the variable of the dynamic sql. if so, as I imagine, then I suppose I have to do the main sp without any 'if' sentence to be the same sp, and so taking it from the cache and not recompile the sp now, I have various 'if' sentences in the main sp (the caller of the dynamic sql) but I plan to remove them and do the 'if' by program -it is in asp.net-, so I suppose it is better because in this way the main sp is took from the cache, supposing this uses the cache different that the dynamic sql in the variable what do u think? does the dynamic sql use 2 caches? if so, u think it is better to try to do the main sp same in all uses (no 'if' statements)? ----- They told me this coding is not good (dynamic sql) because it can give control to the user? I ask, how does it give control to use? what ar sql injection attack and how to prevent them? I use dynamis sql because I have 150 queries to do, and thought dynamic sql is good is it true that dynamic sql have to be recompiled in each execution? I suppose so only if the sql variable is different, right? can u help me?

Hi all!Are there any other way than using rights or Triggers to prevent aDELETE or an UPDATE on a specific column.The "problem" with rights is that they dont apply to all DB-usersThe "problem" with triggers is that they generate lots of extraSQL-codeI would like a solution something like below. If there are anyprimitives like this or other more neat solutions I would be glad toknowCREATE TABLE some_table NO DELETE/* ^^^^^^^^^*/(some_column SOME_TYPE NO UPDATE/* ^^^^^^^^^*/)For clarity, here is a trigger that currently solves the problemCREATE TRIGGER check_updateable_columns ON some_tableFOR UPDATEASIF UPDATE(some_column)RAISERROR(...)GOorCREATE TRIGGER delete_not_allowed ON some_tableINSTEAD OF DELETEASRAISERROR(...)GO

Trigger To Prevent Duplicates
Hi all, I'm writing a trigger to prevent duplicates. I know that this can be done through primary key or unique constraints but in the real world my uniqueness is defined by 8 columns which is too a big an index to maintain on the primary / unique key. If I create a table with 2 columns CREATE TABLE Table1 (CentreCHAR(10), Month CHAR(3) ) Then create a trigger to prevent duplicates CREATE TRIGGER trigger_Check_Duplicates ON Table1 FOR INSERT, UPDATE AS -- This trigger has been created to check that duplicate rows are not inserted into AudioVisual table. DECLARE @IsDuplicate INTEGER -- Check if row exists SELECT @IsDuplicate = 1 FROM Inserted i, Table1 t WHERE t.Centre = i.Centre AND t.Month = i.Month IF (@IsDuplicate = 1) -- Display Error and then Rollback transaction BEGIN RAISERROR ('This row already exists in the table', 16, 1) ROLLBACK TRANSACTION END Then insert a row into the new table (no other data is in there) INSERT Table1 VALUES('0691040176','AUG') I get the Trigger error message that the row already exists. Why is this the case? I though that Table 1 (target table) would show no entries as it has no data - it should be a before image of the table and the inserted table should be an after image. Please help!!! Thanks Neill

Prevent ODBC By USER/APP
Is there a way to monitor all ODBC connections to a MSSQL server and prevent a username/ODBC combination. My problem is that we have many frontends for viewing reports, but we managed them all and users are not allow to make their own connections. Some users now uses MSAccess over ODBC to draw their own reports - they have all the permissions as neededd by the other apps. thanx

Prevent SQL/CLR Auto Deploy
Hi, I have a solution (VS 2005, C#) that includes a SQL 2005 CLR project. When I run the solution (in debug mode, and with a test harness in a different project in the solution set as the startup project) the IDE often wants to deploy my CRL assembly. How do I tell it NOT to try to do the deployment? (i.e. to only do it when I right-click the project and tell it to). Cheers,

Is That Possible To Prevent Modifying The Name Of An IDTSInputColumn90?
Hi, I'm building a custom SSIS data flow component and I create myself input and output columns from a custom property of my pipeline component. That's why I don't want the user to modify the name of the input and output columns by using the advanced editor. Is there a way either to make input/output column properties - at least the name - readonly or to override any PipelineComponent method to throw an exception like we do when we want to prevent the user from adding/removing input/output colulmns with methods like PipelineComponent.DeleteOutputColumn? Thanks for your help, David

Prevent Data Being Inserted Twice
I have a table with 3 columns: ID, Status, DateTime. I created a stored procedure to insert a staus value for each ID. This will run every hour. The DateTime stores the time, date when the Status was inserted. If the procedure was to be run a second time in hour window I do not want any Status to be inserted. Note: that I cannot rely on the procedure being run at exactly the right time - if it was scheduled to run on the hour (i.e at 1:00, 2:00, 3 :00 etc) but didn't run until 1:20 it sould still be able to run at 2:00. Does anyone know if there is anyway I can gaurd against this?

Prevent MS Access To Connect
Hello I'm facing a dilemma. I have quite a lot of users who need read access to data for analysis purposes. By granting them read access you also give them the option to connect to the database using MS Access which puts locks on the data. First I thought of generating stored procedures for all tables within a database those users need to query but when users execute a stored procedure with the name of the table, they get a resultset of all the data. They cannot filter the data by for example using select top 100* from usp_table where name like '%worf%' I'm sure I'm not the only one here but I don't see any alternative then grant them those rights. Thanks! Best Regards, Worf

Is It Possible To Prevent Databases From Being Copied?
Hi, We have a point of sale application (C# .NET 2.0) and a Sql Server 2005 database back end. Our customers are concerned that employees could create a backup of the SQL Server database (or even of the MDF file) and use it to steel customer data. Very often, the application is running on a single PC in a shop using Sql Server Express Edition 2005 under Windows XP. The users usually log on as local administrator. It's hard for us to force our customers to change their local security policies. Ideally, I would like some form of security mechanism that prevents a backup from being restored on to another PC without either a password or some other form of authentication. Is this possible? Regards, Sigol.

How To Prevent A Distributed Transaction?
I have a stored proc that performs some validations and returns a result set. I catch the result set in a calling procedure as follows: declare @tblErr (ErrType varchar(20), ErrMsg varchar(255)) insert @tblErr (ErrType, ErrMsg) exec dbo.spMyProc ...(args) Within the def of spMyProc there is a cross-server call: create procedure dbo.spMyProc (...params...) as begin declare @tblErr (ErrType varchar(20), ErrMsg varchar(255)) ...(do checking, inserts to @tblErr)... -- check other server exec @n = otherserver.mydb.dbo.spCheck ...(args) if @n != 0 insert @tblErr values ('someerr', 'somemsg') ...etc. select ErrType, ErrMsg from @tblErr end Apparently, the implicit transaction of the outer Insert statement is causing a distributed transaction to be started. There is no 'begin tran', distributed or non, and the foreign sp has no data-modifying statements. The call to spMyProc, if done from a query window, works fine, returning the desired resultset. When called from the outer proc, the call fails because the servers are not configured for distributed transactions. When performed without the cross-server call, using a copy of the remote db attached to the local server, the outer proc works fine. I do not want a distributed transaction. How can I prevent one? The local server is 2005 Standard on Server 2003, and the linked server is SQL2000 on Windows 2000 Server.

Prevent Email Authentication
Due to the 'interesting' set up of AD, email etc we are unable to send reports as attachments. It would appear that it is trying to authenticate the user to see if they have permission to view the report, as though they were viewing it in real time. Is there any way to override this behaviour? If not then all we can do is email them a link to the report, which sort of defeats the object.
