Problem W/ Proliferating Administrative Rights
May 9, 2002Hi,
I'm the DBA of a 500 person state agency. I have 16 accounts with SysAdmin rights. That seems way too many. But the other server rights seem to be too restrictive. Even dbOwner seems restrictive. What sort of consensus is there for the rights other application developers and SAs ought to have?

Administrative Question For SQL Server 2000
Jun 1, 2004Hello gentlemen,
I would like to ask a question, more like to verify something that I know myself.
I have an installation in SQL Server 7.0 (SP4), that hosts a database of 70gb with an average growth of 5 gb a month, that is being 'hitted' with an average of 600 clients, (about 50 to 90 concurrent hits). My question is :
Given the fact that I wish to upgrade my server to an SQL Server 2000 Enterprise Edition, how much RAM should I fit to the new machine?
I do have my suspicion, and I would like to keep it to myself for now, I would like also to ask if there's a formula for ram calculation. Mind you I don't ask for MINIMUM RAM, but more like OPTIMUM RAM, being that this Server hosts a critical system.
Thank you in advance.
Script To Save DTS To Another Server Without Any Administrative Efforts
Mar 5, 2008I have a DTS package in a QA server (MS SQL SERVER 2000). Now I want to implement that DTS package to the Production Server (MS SQL SERVER 2000) without any administrative effort.
I just wanted to create a script which can then execute to the production server to create that DTS package.
Till now what I have done to overcome this issues are..
I have save the DTS package in QA Server as Structured Storage File.
And then copied the Structured Storage file from the QA Server to the production Server
And then execute the package using dtsrun utilities.
But in that case it is not creating the package in the production server.So that one can update or view the package from SQL Server Enterprise Manager ->Data transformation Service->Locale Package.
Administrative Commands Via XP_CmdShell In SQL Server 2005
Dec 13, 2007SQL Server 2005: Microsoft SQL Server Enterprise Edition (64-bit)
Microsoft Windows NT 5.2 (3790)
SQL Version 9.00.3175.00
I have 2 identical servers... one for DEV and one for TEST. On the DEV server, I can use xp_cmsdhell to execute "administrative commands" such as NET SHARE and AT. On the identically configured TEST server, I can not. Those command return the "System error 5 has occurred. Access is denied" error. I CAN run other commands via xp_cmdshell (DIR, NET USE, etc.). This is true regardless of the account I connect as.
The SQL Server service accounts in both instances are domain accounts belonging to the local admin group.
I "know" that I ran across this when setting up the DEV server and am "fairly sure" I found a reference to a known problem with 2005's xp_cmdshell and administrative commands. But for the life of me I can not now find any such reference, nor can I find any differences between the DEV and TEST servers in the area of users, groups, policies, or anything else security-related. (99.9% of the internet searches I do end up being about either enabling xp_cmdshell -- done -- or setting up an xp_cmdshell proxy account -- not needed).
Any input is greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Administrative Rights For Local Machine To Deploy Dynamically Created Report From Web App To Report Server
Feb 5, 2007The current way I have my asp.net 2.0 web app running reports is, based on an
interface the user selects the criteria for a report. The .RDL file is created
dynamically based on the user's selections.
I then need to SOAP the dynamically created report to the report server and
then the report runs fine.
BUT it requires Adminstrative rights to do this. Can this be accomplished
without giving the local machine admin rights. I am sorry if this question
has been answered before but i have not been up here in a while.

Installation Of SQL 7.0
Nov 13, 2001Hi:
We ran SQL Replication in Production SQL 7.0 with SP1. We encountered some problems. We ran the same tests in QA which used SQL 7.0 with SP1. The problems were gone.
Both Production and QA used SQL 7.0 with SP1 but they came from different resource CDs. Production one was installed from Microsoft Select CD in 1998. I did not recall the CD which was used for QA.
It indicated those two SQL 7.0 functioned differently and Production on had a bug in it. Can somebody to share with me a detecting tool and a criteria to find out where is wrong in the Production SQL 7.0?
Thank you.

Oct 27, 2005I am new with SQL and have a question regarding SQL Connections. I have 2 Win2003 Servers(tom and Jerry) setup with Microsoft Cluster installed in Active-->Active Mode. Also, on both of these servers, I have SQL 2000 installed in Active-->Active mode as well. So I installed SQL2000 on Tom first and gave the SQL server name of Dog1 which has and IP assigned to it, at the same time I gave an instance name of D1. So now my SQL on Tom server reads Dog1D1. I did another installation on Tom and gave it Dog2D2. Than I went and installed SQL again on Jerry, this time and gave name of CatC3, and CatC4.
Now in my DNS, I have Dog1, Dog2, Cat3, Cat4 defined with an IP I assigned.
Problem I am running into is I cannot connect my application or make and ODBC connection to Dog1D1, Dog2D2, Cat3C3 or Cat4C4. I am getting Server not found message.
Can anyone help me and tell me where I am going wrong, as I need to get this app up ASAP.
Thanks,

Sep 24, 2007Hi,
SQL Server 2005 has been installed on windows server 2003 machine by the support team.
Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio9.00.3042.00
Now this machine has been passed on to me to create databases, tables, etc...
On this server, I open the management studio and I get the connect to server windows.
What should the entries in the connect to server window be for me to get to the next stage where I can start building databases.
At present, I tried local or localhost and windows/sql authentication.
Still can not get to the management studio window.
Any thoughts please?

Hi,
I had SQL Mobile installed on my XP PC. As I wanted to use INSERT IDENTITY, I uninstalled SQL Mobile from my Pc. Now I see two problems:
1. Even after uninstalling SQL Mobile and rebooting my PC, I still see SQL Mobile option when I start SQL Server Mgmt Studio. Any reason why?
2. I then installed SQL CE desktop runtime (nearly 1.8 MB) and rebooted my Pc. Now when I go to Query Analyzer, I still cannot use IDENTITY Insert.
3. There seems to be two versions of CE download: one for desktop and one for mobile. Can anyone let me know which one I should download for desktop? And for deployment on device which version I need to download?

Can't Use This Or That. Installation And IDE
Mar 19, 2008
I started migrating from C++ and want to use C# with an embedded database in my application. My search pointed to MS SQL Server 2005 compact edition. I go to download it and seems like there are two versions to choose from:
MS SQL Server Compact Edition 3.5
Can't use it because it requires Visual Studio 2008. I have VS 2005 and don't want to spend another chuck of money just to work around this one problem.
MS SQL Server Compact Edition 2005
Can't use it because Vista is not a supported operating system for development and it requires Active Sync 4.0 which also will not install on Vista.
I am just screwed because I am using Vista as my development machine, even when I am not targeting Vista for my applications?
Is there anything I can use for a simple embedded data storage solution with VS 2005 and Vista, using C#?
