Hi there,
Does anyone know a way (a query perhaps?) to determine which logins have write permissions to a specific database on SQL Server 2005? Ive thought about joining sys.syslogins & sys.sysusers but looking at the columns, not sure which one would render me that info.
Any help is appreciated. Many thanks!
How do I determine the read/write frequency on a database table? I am trying to do this on a 2012 and 2008 R2 servers.
View 2 Replies View RelatedQuery to show logins that don't have any permissions within the SQL instance? I'm tasked with doing some cleanup and have found some cases where the database was deleted or moved to another server but the logins that used it were not deleted. I'd like to identify them to research.
For instance a query to show logins that have no permissions in any of the existing databases would be handy. I'm thinking it would be complicated by the need to loop through all of the existing databases and then outer join it to the list of instance level logins. Going to try to write something like that but was hoping that a script already exists.
Our company has 2 Database Roles (DBE and DBA). The DBE creates
database schema, performs SQL Server Administration, and manages server
security. The DBA writes data access, ETL, and manages database
security. In 2005, we're struggling with how to allow the DBA to see
all of the logins on the server in order to add them as users of their
database. What permissions does the DBA need to select from any of the
logins on the server to add them to their database?

Hi,
I tried to backup the master key by the following syntax :
OPEN MASTER KEY DECRYPTION BY PASSWORD = 'mypassword'
BACKUP MASTER KEY TO FILE = 'c: empmaster' ENCRYPTION BY PASSWORD = 'mypassword'
but it failed and i got the following message:
Cannot write into file 'c: empmaster'. Verify that you have write permissions, that the file path is valid, and that the file does not already exist.
NB: I am using the "sa" user to execute this command.
I know that we have a security permission issue , but where and how ?

Hello All
Just wondered if someone could help me with a bit of T-SQL, i have a application in ASP.NET/VB that allows the user to update a message board by clicking a button "update" this in turn triggers my Stored Procedure for inserting this data into a table, which works great.
It inserts the data into its respective fields and also takes The Title, Line 1, Line 2 and so on and creates a XML file (Using FOR XML) which is stored in the same Table under a column call XML_Data. Which again works great.
My problem now is how do i output this XML_Data to an actual XML file that is on my local machine, i.e. It be created in say C:Inetpubwwwrootxmlfiles("xml file name inserted here from another column that holds xml file name").xml
Any help on this would be greatfully apreciated
Thanks In Advance

Hello:
We are working on an application but with other users who have been using the SA password. The application is running on MSSQL 6.5 and sp4.
We have been generally assigning logins/userids to new users although some people are using the SA id. The SA id password has been changed so that will stop users (really developers) from using it.
Most users are assigned to a group which has select, insert, update, delete
permission. Some users will be moved to a group which as only select privilege
I would like to query the system tables and see exactly what permissions
are assigned to each user.
I can look at Enterprise manager and cut and paste this information I think.This is cumbersome
1) Does anyone have a query I can run to get the userid/login and the permissions for each userid?
2) How can I make a user a dbo and give him/her the same permissions as a dbo on tablesalready creaetd?
Thanks.

Hi,
In my local instance of SQL Server at work (which I use for testing), somehow all of the logins except 2 were dropped. The administrators group no longer exists as a login (nor do any other windows users or groups)-the only 2 remaining are sa (which is disabled) and a SQL login I had created earlier which has no permissions except read permission on master. I can login as this SQL user, but I do not have permissions to create logins or enable the sa account. Do I have any options other than uninstalling and reinstalling my local instance?
Thanks,

Hi,
I am at a company with 18 employees and I have 11-12 databases in SQL
server. I can't seem to give logins and permissions to groups. Is there
a simpler way, or do I have to add every single employee to each
database and give permissions?
I need to move several databases to a new server while retaining the same logins/permissions. Books Online indicates that DTS can move the SQL Server logins, but it sets the passwords to NULL in the process. Is there any way to move the logins and keep all passwords/permissions intact?

This information isused as a backup in the event of a server failing so we then havesomething to fall back on if we need to add the same logins/permissionsagain.This takes ages to do, as I have to manually enter all the informationinto a spreadsheet.Steps:- In Enterprise Manager I connect to a server then 'Security' tab, then'Logins'.

Haven't been able to find the answer to this after sever searches. So decided to open the thread myself.
I am trying to write a report enumerating logins in SQL Server and all database-level and object-level permissions granted to each login.
Can someone tell me what system objects I can query to fetch this information?
TIA.
Hello all,I am looking for the script, which I believe exists already.I need tobe able to populate the script for security of one database andapply it to another database, even if it is located on another server:1. All logins which not exist have to be created and which existsignored including the NT accounts2. Users same as the old database + the existing ones stay in database3. Passwords for the new logins.4. All permissions/grants on all objects for the users that exists(usually it's the case) and ignore those that don't.I have script which does some of it, but it's not perfect, so everytime there are some errors.Please let me know, if you need me to email script that I have. It'spretty long so I cannot just post it in here.Thank you in advance.
View 3 Replies View RelatedA question on the permissions hierarchy:
Since logins, database users, and database roles are both principals and securables - what does it mean to GRANT permission on a login/user/role to another principal? Does it mean that for a login - you can GRANT permission to EXECUTE AS that login or modify it, for example?

Hi all Im currently going through a ASP.NET book but i just cant get to use the SQL server express databases that come with the code examples in the book. All i can do is read the data but thats about it. I keep on getting the error below whenever i try to alter the data in the databases. I have tried enabling write permissions for the NETWORK SERVICE account for the App_Data folder but i still get the same issue. Im running the web apps with these databases in IIS v5.1 and using Visual web developer express. Im still an ASP.NET novice so please keep the solution to my problem as simple as humanly possible.Thanks in advance all.

I see that a recent related message was posted about built-in accounts.
Anyway, a vendor set up system using SQL 2014. The SQL Server Agent service was running under the 'Local System Account'.
Agent jobs were failing because they couldn't write to a shared folder on the same server. I decided to change the account to a regular privileged domain user. Here is the error message:
Executed as user MYDOMAINSQL2014Agent Cannot open backup device 'EackupMyBackup' Operating system error 5(Access is denied). [SQLSTATE 42000] [Error 3201] BACKUP DATABASE is terminating abnormally [SQLSTATE 42000] [Error 3013]. The step failed
I granted Full Control to that domain user and it still failed. I added 'Everyone' and gave it Full Control and it succeeded.
I understand that the account under which the Agent is running should have Write permissions on the share. However, I must have missed something. The only way I can get this to work is to grant Write or Full Control to Everyone. I absolutely do not want to do that.
ok, first, I know... I forgot to run a backup of the master database, and I forgot to run a script to caputure logins. Not that that is out of the way... I need to recreate the logins under the Securities tab below the databases. All the company databases have the user names and passwords assigned to them, but they are not able to login, because they are not able to authenticate to the SQL server first.
Is there a script that someone has that will copy the company database security info for the users and recreate them in the SQL security tab?
I know that I can rebuild them manually, but I need to delete them first in the application software, then delete them from the databases, and then recreate them in the application software... and as simple as that sounds... it is a slow moving process.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
John

DATABASE one is the name of the database i want to backup. Now it looks there so many databases some of which i have no idea where they are. It looks like there some system stored procedures i have to run first before my database file can be located by my commands. It would be wonderfull if some one pointed me to an article that covers this initial part thoroughly.
Hello,
I would like some help in uploading a database from my harddrive to a server using sql server management studio express.
If I try to attach it to the server, this program only looks at the files on this server and not on my harddrive. So how can I copy a sql database to my folder on the server.
I am sure it must be a simple problem, but I've been bizzy with it for about a day now. So, please advice.
Rgds,
Wouter.
What is the most reliable way to determine the last LSN of a database? I've looked in sys.database_files to no avail. I've also looked in msdb.dbo.backupset which is accurate but only based on backups already performed not the current state of the database.

Problem: I can add 4 items to a SQL 7.0 database but I need to redirect the user if all 4 items exist in the same Record elsewhere in the Database.
Clearly I need some kind of statement like "if category1 = var1 AND category2 = var 2 AND..." but don't know where to put it.
Code:
strSQL = "SELECT * FROM tblUserQuarter"
Set objRS = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
objRS.Open strSQL, objConn,adOpenStatic , adLockOptimistic

Hi There
I am trying to establish the date a database was last used.
At first i checked out sp_helpfile and sysfiles to see if there was a date last modified, i also tried using xp_cmdshell to check the date on the actual .mdf or .ldf on the o/s but if the file has not grown the date will be the create date.
I need to establish the date a database was last used, either the last time someone logged into it or the last time any sort of command was run against the database, i cannot use sysprocesses as there are no connections to the database, so i need to determine the last time there actually were any processes run against this database.
And i need to use tsql, checking audit logs etc is not viable, can anyone help ?
Thanx
hello,
I want to load some table fromoracle database:
first : i created a datasource link between sql server and oracle database
second : i maked a flow to load data
Thus simple thing works good for one table...
But my question is how can i do for a group of table
In reality we have 30 table to do and i hear about variable, parameters ....
but i don't understand what it mean !!
so if somebody could explain to me the steps to do !!
Does anybody know of a way to determine the last date/time a table has been accessed (query/update)? I've done enough research to know that this isn't easy. However, perhaps somebody has figured out a way through some of the stats that SQL Server keeps to determine the last access of a table. I have recently been put on a team that had no DBA and has a number of databases out there. They would like to determine which databases are inactive and get rid of them. I am a developer and haven't had much SQL Server Administration experience. Any info will help greatly! Thanks!
