Accessing Users && Members In Active Directory Via Linked Server

Mar 24, 2006

Hi,

I'm trying to extract all the users and their membership to groups, and the membership of groups to groups from active directory though a link to server.

I can get the users. I can get the groups.... individually.

I can't get the info of what user is a member of or who are members of a group.

Anyone know how to do this or am I going to have to right a vb app? (Anyone already got the code...)

I want to load this data into tables for reporting in my Data Warehouse.

Cheers

Chris

Accessing Report Services Using Form Authentication Against Active Directory

Nov 21, 2007

I hope someone can help.

I'm working on a web project that will display the reports in an iframe to the user. When I was using windows security It worked perfectly.

Now my boss wants me to use form based authentication instead that can authenticate against our current Active Directory. This is working perfectly and does authenticate correctly. The only problem is that when I load a report in the iframe http://myserver/reportserver/myreport-blah reporting services prompts the user to enter in windows credentials. Is there anyway to pass my form credentials to the report server so that the user doesn't have to log in again.

Both the report server and the web app are on the same server BUT in different virtual directories.

PS: I tried using the reportviewer control but it does not display things correctly. For example, I have use a multi select dropdown on the reports and it messes up the drop down when the user only has 1 selection (hiding the selection). If the user has more than one selection the drop down uses scroll bars. I would use the reportviewer control if it displayed exactly like it does when using alternate URL method.

Any help would be MUCH appreciated!

Thanks!

Searching Active Directory With SQL Server 2000

Nov 3, 2004

I was wondering how exactly one can search the Active Directory with SQL Server 2000. There is all kind of stuff on the Internet about how to connect them and how useful it is to connect them together - plus how you can use Active Directory to query SQL Server, but I`ve never encountered any article where they explain how SQL Server can search the Active Directory.
I`m thinking about how one has their user-database in Active Directory with all users in groups, but only uses groups in SQL Server. How exactly can SQL Server figure out how a user belongs to a group?
Does Active Directory tell SQL Server about that when the user tries to access something from SQL Server, or does SQL Server already knows which group is accessing it as soon as the user authenticates in Active Directory?

SQL Server 2000 And Active Directory Groups

Mar 19, 2008

Hi all,

just want to confirm this:

We have a department and want to grant them access to various databases on a sql server 2000 instance. Can we create an AD group for these users and just add the group as a login to SQL Server? Or do we have to create a db user for each member of the group and map the logins one by one?

Thanks

Cannot See A Newly Installed SQL Server 2000 (No Active Directory)

Jul 20, 2005

We have just installed a SQL Server 2000 (SP 3A) onto a computer thathas Windows-2003 Server on it. Now, we cannot get access to thatdatabase server from other computers. Seem like this may be an issuewith Active Directory.Our network consists of Windows-2000 Servers (SP 4) and Windows-2000workstations and Windows-XP workstations. We also have SQL Server 2000(SP2) in three Windows-2000 servers. All work fine. Recently, we get anew server that has already had Windows-2003 Server pre-installed.After we have installed SQL Server 2000 (SP 3A) on the new server, wefind that we cannot get access to that new database server from othercomputers.I have tried connecting to that new database server using QueryAnalyzer (using both the sa account and Windows Authentication), and Iget this error message:Unable to connect to server NEWDBSRV:Server: Msg 17, Level 16, State 1[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][DBNETLIB]SQL Server does notexist or access denied.I have tried connecting to that new database server using ISQL (usingboth the sa account and Windows Authentication), and I get this errormessage:DB-Library: Unable to connect: SQL Server is unavailable or does notexist.Unable to connect: SQL Server does not exist or network accessdenied.Net-Library error 53: ConnectionOpen (Connect()).I have also tried to register the new database server using EnterpriseManager (again, using both the sa account and Windows Authentication),and I get this error message:NEWDBSRV - SQL Server does not exist or access denied.ConnectionOpen(Connect())The only way that I can get access to the new database server is toopen Enterprise Manager directly on the new server.I have compared the properties of the new database server and those ofthe other existing database servers. The only differences are:-Other database servers are running Windows-2000. The new databaseserver is running Windows-2003.-The new database server is missing the "Active Directory" page-tagwhen I check its properties using Enterprise Manager. We use ActiveDirectory in our network, and the Active Directory is being run from aWindows-2000 server (that is currently also a database server).According to our network administrator, he has already put the newserver into our Active Directory. He doesn't know why it is missingthe Active Directory page-tag. He believes this has something to dowith its having Windows-2003 that is different from other servers(that have Windows-2000).Thanks in advance for any info.Jay Chan

Authenticating Against LDAP/Active Directory With SQL Server 2000 SP2

Jun 4, 2007

Hello everyone,

We have a custom application that connects remotely to a SQL Server 2000 (SP2) database. We would like our application to validate a user's login against Active Directory.

So far I have been able to get a lookup working, but I can not find documentation on how to validate the password from within SQL Server. I found a lot of notes on using ASP.NET objects, or VB, C#, etc, but for this solution it must be done entirely in SQL. It would also be nice if this were SQL Server 2005; we could just embed the C# code and call it as a SQL stored proc, but unfortunately we are left with the constraint that we cannot upgrade this DB at this time.


Linked server 'ADSI' is set up with the sp_addlinkedserver command:

EXEC master.dbo.sp_addlinkedserver @server = N'ADSI', @srvproduct=N'Active
Directory Services 2.5', @provider=N'ADsDSOObject', @datasrc=N'adsdatasource'


Two table functions in our test DB (trying to test both ways I've found in docs):

ALTER FUNCTION [dbo].[GetAuthenticatedUserViaLDAP]
(
-- Add the parameters for the function here
@userId nvarchar(50),
@password nvarchar(50)
)
RETURNS TABLE
AS
RETURN
(
-- Add the SELECT statement with parameter references here
SELECT [SAMAccountName], CN [Name], SN [Last Name], ST State
FROM OPENQUERY( ADSI,
'<LDAP://DC=company,DC=com>;((objectClass=user));SAMAccountName,cn,sn,st')
WHERE [SAMAccountName] = @userId
)

ALTER FUNCTION [dbo].[GetAuthenticatedUser]
(
-- Add the parameters for the function here
@userId nvarchar(50),
@password nvarchar(50)
)
RETURNS TABLE
AS
RETURN
(
-- Add the SELECT statement with parameter references here
SELECT [SAMAccountName], [Name], SN [Last Name], ST State
FROM OPENQUERY( ADSI,
'SELECT SAMAccountName, Name, SN, ST
FROM ''LDAP://bdsserver1/ CN=users,DC=company,DC=com''
WHERE objectCategory = ''Person''
AND objectClass = ''user'' ')
WHERE [SAMAccountName] = @userId
)


So calling either of these table functions from our custom application gives the same result:

select * from dbo.GetAuthenticatedUser('astonaker','abc')
OR
select * from dbo.GetAuthenticatedUserViaLDAP('astonaker','abc')


ResultSet:

'astonaker', 'Anthony', 'Stonaker' 'NULL'


So I can at least tell if a given user exists or not, but I have no visibility into whether the password they entered into our application is valid in LDAP.

I don't want to pass unencrypted passwords through the network, but then I don't know how to encrypt/compare these passwords without using the .NET Connection or DirectoryEntry, etc objects.

Any thoughts/suggestions are greatly appreciated!

RS 2000 With Active Directory Application Mode (ADAM)

Feb 16, 2007

Hi all,

I have a customer with an RS installation in a DMZ, using ADAM for its authentication.

The problem I have is as follows :

When setting up the execution log reporting (supplied as part of the standard install) all information being captured for report execution e.g Which user ran a specific report and when, is coming up with 'UNKNOWN' for the user name.

Does anyone have any idea where to look to fix the recording of user information? I am not sure whether it is a RS or A.D.A.M issue.



Thanks

SQL Server And Active Directory

Jun 6, 2004

Hello,

I have recently upgraded my the server that runs SQL Server to an Active Directory Domain Controler. Now I can't connect to the SQL Server from ASP.NET Applications when the application is not located on the local machine. The error message I get is SQL Server does not exist or access is denied.
I have no problems connecting with QueryAnalyer and Enterprise Manager from my workstation. I have added the Sql Server to the directory via the "Active Directory"-tab in the Property window for my Sql Server Registration i Enterprise Manager.
If I copy a directory from the wwwroot on my workstation to the server the application has no problem to connect so the connectionstring seams to work fine.

Any ideas?

Regards,
Kalle

SQL Server Logins And Active Directory

Nov 1, 2007

Sometimes a user name will change in Active Directory and I have to change the name in SQL Server as well. So what I do is first delete the old user name from SQL Server's logins. However I wont be able to see the new user name in SQL Server to add it as a legit user until I roboot the server. Is there somekind of code I can execute to resynchronize with Active Directory again?

Active Directory Groups Don't Work With Linked Server?

I mapped a login created with an Active Directory Group on server A to a login on server B through a linked server on server A and received a null login error when attempting to connect.

I changed the Active Directory Group login to an individual active directory login and the connection worked fine.

I saw someone post online somewhere that Active Directory Groups don't work with linked server by design--but I wanted to get confirmation on this. Can anyone confirm this, particularly someone from Microsoft?

Move Sql Database From Development Machine To Server With Active Directory

Dec 23, 2004

Hi all! I know I might sound stupid, but I have this problem. I have developed my database on my laptop which does not use Active directory. Lets say I access the database with: SPIDERMANDB1 on SQL server, where the name of my laptop is SPIDERMAN, and the database is DB1. Now, I create an SQL script from sql server and make the necessary changes, like changing the computer name to say, SUPERMAN where my deployment server's name is SUPERMAN. But when I run the SQL script on the SUPERMAN server, it gives me an error like: "User or role SUPERMANDB1 does not exist in this database". I have deployed databases in this way on servers without Acive directory, so I'm sure its not a mistake on my side. So how am I supposed to go around this active directory thingi! Please help me out! I'm counting on u guys!

Linking Or Importing Active Directory Objects To SQL Server Tables

Jun 29, 2007

We're trying to figure out whether it's possible to link AD objects to SQL tables. For example, if we have a table of Users and a table of Companies, we'd like to enter the users into Active Directory, create the Companies as either OU's or Security Groups, then have those entities magically appear in the corresponding SQL Server tables. Is that possible? Thanks in advance.

Mapping Active Directory Group Members To SQL Server Roles

Sep 12, 2006

My question is I have a SQL Server running on Web Server which is a member of a 2000 Active Directory, I only grant access to the database via Global Groups from the Active Directory. When I log onto the database via Windows Authentication the actual user shows up in the master.dbo.sysprocesses table, I can tell what database that process is going to but not how that user is being translated to the Global Group that was actually given access. I need the actual database user name which is the Global Group name that had permissions granted via user defined database roles so that I can do some pre-processing in an ASP.NET application so that I know what parts of a form are updatable or not.
