I have a windows based software application that connects remotely to a sql server 2005 and calls stored procedures. There is someone that I work with that is cautioning the company strongly that this is a bad thing to do in terms of security. Isn't this a very common thing to do? Assuming that the SQL Server installation is setup appropriately. Is this a bad practice?
View 4 RepliesSQL Database in my application with windows authentication rejects accessing after deploying and remote access
1- My web applications databese access is windows authentication
2- In developing area there is no problem for accessing database
3- After deploying to another server there is problem accessing database:
Cannot open user default database. Login failed.Login failed for user 'BRCK231ASPNET'.
How can I solve this problem?
Thanks.
Hello!
I've been creating a vb.net 2005 windows form application using Everywhere and it has been going pretty well. However, I haven't had much luck finding any help on how to deploy my Everywhere database file(s) and Everywhere itself. To install redistribute Everywhere, can I just add the the 8 .dlls found in the Everywhere directory into my VS setup project? Also, what database file(s) do I need to deploy in my windows setup?
Thanks!
Hi all,
I'm working on a project where I have to create a password protected form for teachers to submit reports about students.
Originally I was going to use asp.net to create the form, but unfortunately the server I'm working with will not be granted asp functionality in the allotted timeframe.
To solve this issue I have another idea. So I will ask a few questions to help with research before I begin coding.
Is it possible to create a windows application that can connect to an access database hosted online? The windows app will need to be be able to update, insert, and select information from the database.
There is only going to be about 30-40 people using this windows application once or twice a week.
Thus I envision taking a password protected access database and dropping it onto a server.
The windows application will have the online location of the database embeded into the code. (connection string)
From there on out coding for the windows application should be the exact same as if the database was hosted locally on the computer, correct?
Also,
1. What is a good way to check and make sure the computer is connected to the internet before my application tries to access the database?
2. Are there any drastic security issues with this process that I should think about. The database will only be password proected, and the windows application will take a username/password from the user and check it against a table before they are able to submit info to the database.
I just need to be pointed in the right direction for this project.
Thanks.
Hi guys
I'm writing a C# application which connects to a local SQL database for data access. The application connects to SQL Server through windows authentication, but opens up the port and sqlbrowser to others on the network wanting to access the database through SQL Server authentication, and also allows remote users to connect to this server remotely if they have the login and password (and because the port is already open)
I understand this is not secure and open to attack, and am unsure of how to secure these processes without blocking these three types of access, from A.) the local user, B.) the network user and C.) the remote user across the net.
Have researched this a fair bit, but get somewhat lost amongst all the jargon.
Hi all,
I have a Windows Server 2003 with SQL Server 2005.

Warning If you use Registry Editor incorrectly, you may cause
serious problems that may require
you to reinstall your operating system. Microsoft cannot
guarantee that you can solve problems that result from using
Registry Editor incorrectly. Use Registry Editor at your own
risk.To work around this problem, follow these steps on the
computer that Windows XP SP2 is installed on:
1. Make sure that the Log On As account for the MSDTC service
is the Network Service account. To do this, follow these steps:
a. Click Start, and then click Run.
b. In the Run dialog box, type Services.msc, and then click OK.
c. In the Services window, locate the Distributed Transaction
Coordinator service under Name in the right pane.

After 2 days of reading everything on the net about setting up Remote Access of my SQL 2012 Express using Windows Authentication I'm still not able to connect from a remote client onto my SQL Server Database Engine. I can get connected if using SQL Server Authentication. I have set all the parameters to allow access (read and tried everything from this site: URL.... but when I try using SSMS from the remote client to login I get Login failed. The login is from an untrusted domain and cannot be used with Windows authentication. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 18452).I've disable the firewall (Even though I have put in rules to allow port 1433 and UDP port 1434). Nothing is allowing me to connect. I've have tried every solution listed and got nowhere. My network is very simple with only three computers connected via a Linksys router (Two running Windows 7 the test client is running Windows 8.1). I can shared files and folders between all. Each computer only has one user defined (default admin user).
I need to make this work as I have to document it for other end users who will be using an application I created that requires an SQL Database and it needs to be accessible by other users on their network.
How can I access data to SQL server 2005 using Windows form application,ADO.net and .Net remoting?
Can anybody help me? please...
Hi,
I am developing a windows application that needs to communicate with a remote SQL server 2005 database. Server allows remote connections and MSDTC service also running. Do I need to run MSDTC service on the client machine where I use desktop application ? any ideas ? It's throwing some error like
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.
But my SQL Server allows remote connection, and I am able to do a select statement.
But when I insert/update anything, it's throwing this error. I guess some problem with MSDCT. Anybody have any idea ?
Hi!!
I'moving my asp application to a new hosting server.
So when i tried the setup locally with the live DB & application in my test machine...
The DB access is denied when application tries to hit the DB.
DB is in seperate machine with SQL Server 2000 & application(ASP) is in Windows server 2003.....
Kindly help me with your suggestions....on what went wrong?
We log ship our production database tansaction logs to a secondary database on a separate remote domain.
Incidentally, this was not set up via the "Ship Transaction Logs" wizard, but instead we had to use the various system stored procedures after restoring a copy of the database on the remote domain in standby mode.
We now have an issue where users are unable to access the remote secondary database without having sysadmin privileges. Clearly we want to avoid this!
We want to be able to use Windows Authentication mode on the server of the secondary database. But since the two domains differ, is it possible to even achieve this?
How can we set up read-only access for users on the secondary database without giving them sysadmin privileges?
I am attempting to write a Windows service that watches a database for uploaded files to import. When a new file is found, the corresponding SSIS package is run from the file system with variables passed through. I started development as a Windows app and copied the functionality to a service.
The app runs fine. The service does not. I get a "Failure" each time a package is executed. Everything is identical behind the scenes with the obvious exceptions that OnStart and OnStop handlers are buttons in the app. I added a script task at the beginning of one of the SSIS packages to notify me that it is even running at all. It doesn't even hit that initial task.
Again, the app will run all packages just fine. The data is imported and the results return as "Success."
The following is the code executing the package. Any help is appreciated. I've been banging my head on this one for a few days now. (Is there a tag to format a code sample?)
Dim pkgLocation As String
Dim pkg As New Package
Dim app As New Application
Dim pkgResults As DTSExecResult
pkgLocation = sPackageFolder & PackageName & ".dtsx"
pkg = app.LoadPackage(pkgLocation, Nothing)
Dim vars As Variables = pkg.Variables
vars("ImportId").Value = ImportId
vars("ProductionServer").Value = ProductionServer
vars("ProductionDatabase").Value = ProductionDatabase
vars("SourceFileName").Value = FileName
vars("SourceFilePath").Value = FilePath
pkgResults = pkg.Execute()
Hi,
Where do I ask questions about creating SQL Server 2005 triggers? I want to create a field in a SQl server 2005 database based on a combination of four (4) fields in one table, and then have the data updated in a field in the same table, as well as output to the asp.net web form.
Any guidance appreciated.
Thanks.
Hi all
I have a couple of windows forms which share tables or parts of tables.
When I edit a tables data on one form (form2), where it ,s data is linked to another form ( form1), when I go back to form1 I find that the fields have not been updated until I close the form and reopen it.
Is there a way to refresh the field on form1 by using a button in the menu bar and what would the code behind look like. I use vb .
Thanks

I have been successful with DTS packages and various SQL statements. However, I have a new challenge. I have a table in an SQL Server database. One of the columns is employee number and a column for department number(which is not populated) In a remote AS400 file I have the employees number and department number. I want to create a package to connect to remote table and update SQL Server table with department number where the two tables match on the employee number.

But my fron end user( user who logged in into webapplication) lost his identity b'coz for database user is application server.
Now I wanna to track front end user in db.
In oracle I can do it by using CLIENT_IDENTIFIER. But in sql server I don't know how to do it.
in oracle i can do it as below

ps.setString(1, identity);
ps.execute();

once the transaction is complete, the application should reset the identity as follows:

Hi,
I have a table in my database with several car types, and the order I want for that table is:
Car_typeA_1
Car_typeA_2
Car_typeA_3
Car_typeA_4
Other_Cars_typeA
Car_typeB_1
Car_typeB_2
Car_typeB_3
Other_Cars_typeB
Car_typeC_1
Car_typeC_2
Car_typeC_3
Car_typeC_4
Car_typeC_5
Other_Cars_typeC
...
This table is more or less always the same, but from time to time I want to add a new car type, for instance; Car_typeA_5, but this new type must be located under the last register, in the example under ‘Other_Cars_typeC’. So, now the order is wrong, and when I want to display these car types to a web form object, the items will appear wrong ordered.
My question is: To order the values(items) correctly, Where I have to do it? In the web page (ASP.NET) code behind, or somewhere in SQL Server (for example in the Stored Procedure that passes the value to the application)? Or maybe in the same database table..?
Thank you,
Cesar
Hi Guys,
I have an Intranet web application and I have to use windows authentication. They are 4 main users group to access the application, each with different set of permission on my store procedures.
I have created a windows group for each of those group in my windows environemnt. My DB Connection String in web.config is set to Integrated Windows Authentication ( Integrated Security=SSPI)
I have done all configuration based on this article: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms998292.aspx
I have 4 different database Roles in my database and 4 different database users. I also add NT AUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICE as a member of each of those database Roles.
Now I get connected, fine and set permission on the database roles.
1 thing I want to know, How Can I get the Windows Group name in the database, which has the same name as my SQL Login and Database Roles or User
I tried all SUSER_SNAME() and ... they all return NT AUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICE
I want to get AppPowerUser Role or windows group name. I think I should be able to because I am using windows authentication.
Any help is appreciated.

Anyone live in seattle (meet on cap hill)? I have been stuck for weeks now and can't wait any longer wasting time - i will pay someone to set me up correctly quickly. I doubt this will be resolved online, but here goes... I need a datagrid to bring up simple database info (northwind) instead of showing the error 'login failed for mycomputeraspnet'. I am using windows authentication and my string is connectionstring = datasource=(local)\netsdk;initial catalog=Northwind;integrated security=sspi; persistent security=false;, I have seen online they say alter the authorization in the app virtual directory-- is that the C/inetpub/wwwroot or the web config of my project? I did so in the web config of my project, and also I added the impersonate=true to same already. I shared all the folders and made sure they are not read-only. I am flabbergasted.

That affects only interface design... so that it doesn't exists at all in a SSIS.
What is it for??
Let me know your view on this or any clarification.
- When I disable "allow remote connections to this server" from server properties>connection page, I can still remotely connect to the server from SSMS...so what is the impact of enable/disabling it?
- what is the impact of changing the remote query timeout (on the same page) from default value?
Hello,
I am creating a windows application that is not going to be used in a controlled environment like a LAN or some other network, so I want to include a local database in the install of this app. Ideally, I would like to use SQL 2005 Express like you would MSDE or Access, but I am not sure if the user must have SQL Server installed on their machine in order for this to work and I don't have a machine without it to test on.
Any help on this is greatly appreciated.

Hi,
I am developing an application that uses Access database (mdb file) to store the user data. The user of this application is not interested in the database file (to view in MS Access Environment). Does the user machine requires MS Access installation to run my application or just some couple of dlls (OleDB driver, Access DB Engine,..) should be enough to run my application?

Hello, I'm having a problem connection to an Eval version of SQL Server 2000. I'm pretty sure the problem is not due to Eval version since...well, I need to evaluate the server if I intended to purchase it right? anyhow. I've loaded a copy of SQL server 2000 on my local machine. I only have one machine which I use for development and housing SQL Server.
I tried to set SQL up real "vanilla" and elected to use only Windows Authentication, this bypassing any userdefined passwords for the sa login.
Now...I've written a real basic Stored Procedure to test the connection and verify proper data transfer from the .aspx page. here's the SP SQL code and the .vb code behind page as well as the error I get. Note. I also tried Query Analyzer and was getting an error there as well indicating the SP could not be found...hmmm..

Hi
My application :
On PC : Access application + Access DB
On PocketPC : Embedded Visual Basic 3.0 application + PocketAccess DB
I synchronise my DBs through ActivSync.
It runs good before Windows Mobile 5.
My customers asked me for new PocketPC with this application, so I bought some new PocketPCs : but as I see, syncronisation with Access is no more supported.
So what are my solutions ?
My customer wait for there PocketPC, so I need a quick solution, I don't want to rewrite all my application now.
My application run before WM5, so now I don't want to have to pay for a Visual Studio .Net, some SQL Server, etc ....
Please, what are the solutions that won't cost me more than the time that have already lost with this new Windows Mobile 5 ?

Is there a way to control some of the windows application log settings from within the logging process of a package. Specifically the 'source' parameter which comes out as 'SQLISPackage' which i'd like to be the actual name of the package which wrote to the log, and similarly 'Category' which comes out as 'none' and I'd prefer to assign something more meaniful ?

Frustration has gotten the best of me on this one. Can anyone help?
I need to pass the current value in an Access Data Project (back-end is MS SQL) text field to the where condition in an SQL using VBA. This is what I have, but does not work.

Dim strSSecurity As String
strSSecurity = Me.SS
strSQL = "Update Employees Set employees.PositionID = '',employees.jobcode = '' Where employees.ss = strSSecurity"
DoCmd.RunSQL strSQL
End Sub
It is supposed to take the current Social Security number from the form and match it against the employees table. Once it finds the matching record it should update the PositionID and JobCode fields to '' (empty string)
But it doesn't
