HI, How to save passwords in sql server server 2000, i mean i build
database that consist table of user , in this table i want to storage
user's details including their passwords. As i understand it's not good
idea to storage password like other data i mean name , last name.
How to accomplish this???
Hello All, I have a problem with my database. It appears that it does not save the passwords for a login account that I have created. Every time I put in the password (using the Management Studio) it looks like the new password has been accepted. But when I look at the password using properties, the password is different. Any ideas? Thanks a lot for your help.
I am moving a large number of databases to a new server. While recreating the orphaned users it takes a bit of time to hunt down the connection string in code to find out the password for the login (I didn't create the majority of the web applications). Is there a way to have Enterprise Manager display the passowrds in plain text to make my job a bit more efficient?
I€™m using express edition of SQL server 2005. 9.00.1399.06 (Intel X86)
I need to transfer all SQL logins and passwords from one server to another.
The script at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/246133 (designed for sqlserver 7.0 and 2000) This script references a system table (master..syslogins) that may not exits in sqlserver 2005. I get the following error:
EXEC master..sp_help_revlogin
Msg 208, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_help_revlogin, Line 12 Invalid object name 'master..sysxlogins'.
Would SMO be something to try for transfering logins and passwords?
I am moving an application from MSDE to SQL Server Express. I have having difficulty finding a way to use a simple passsword for the SQL Login. SQL Server 2005 allows this
We run some VB scripts to extract data from our SQL server. Within these scripts we reference a 'read only' SQL userid and it's password in the connection string.
What I want to do is remove the references to the 'read only' user and it's password from the scripts.
Could we add the user that is running the script as a SQL authenticated user (that has read only access) thereby not have to reference any passwords in our script ?
Using SQL Server 2005 SP2 std edition on Windows 2003 R2 SP2 x64 std edition I'm allowed to break the password policy.
To reproduce this behaviour as a system administrator run...
create login testuser with password='p'
This creates a login with the default of POLICY enabled ('Enforce Password Policy' check box is checked). OK, so may be system administrator is allowed to break the policy but now login as testuser and run
alter login testuser with password='t' old_password='p'
This succeeds despite obviously breaking the policy.
Surely this can't be right, I must be doing something wrong.
I have to create some type of an sp that will force users to change their passwords every 30 days. It sounds like I should be able to create a simple table with the login and the password expiration date. Then, I should create some type of function to check the expiration, get the new password and run sp_password. Has anyone done this before? Where would this table be created? In Master? Would that also be where I should create this sp? Should this be an xp?
I'm fairly light on creating sp's. Can anyone suggest a starting point for me or give any suggestions? I would appreciate any help. Thanks! Toni E.

We store passwords of users of our website. They need to be autenticated and based on that it gives them access to what they are entitled. But its not like NT or server authentication.
This has been setup so that we have a user table and it stores the password. However, it stores it in plain text. Is there any way I can encrypt this field so it is unreadable? Is there a property or a datatype that I can't find? Is there a way to simulate the encryption?
