Is it possible to write an ASP.NET app that can do certain SQL Server 2000 administration tasks, specifically add sql server users, and change sql server user passwords? Would it just be a matter of running the appropriate system stored procedures (sp_password, etc.), or does .NET provide any hooks into SQL Server for something like this? Thanks!
View 5 RepliesI'm new in the DBA position recently aquired, and I'm having a few issues with MSSQL configuration and administration.
1. I have created a two maintenance plans, one for system databases and another one for user databases, this plans include things such as, Integrity Checks, Optimizations and DB Backups, however the Integrity Checks fail with the error that the DB's must be in single user mode, how can I go about to make this and what are the implications of doing so?
2. There's been a few reports of MSSQL server compromises through UDP port 1433, so I closed it at firewall level, only TCP 1433 is going through, do I really need UDP 1433?
Thank you very much.
Sorry for starting a new thread on this subject but my situation is a bit different.
I want to connect to a remote SQL-server in a DIFFERENT domain, using Enterprise Manager. Whatever I try, I allways get an "SQLserver not found"-error.
The ASP's on the server that make use of the SQL server are functioning without any problems, so I guess the SQL-server itself is OK.
I tried:
servername = URL remote server
setting up a linked server
setting up a remote server
I'm a webdesigner and a newbe to SQLserver7. Please keep in mind I could be overseeing something that very obvious for you.
So what could be the problem. Any tips? Thanks!
Is there a way to remotely control SQL server 7.0 from NT workstation
and win98?

View 1 Replies View RelatedHi All, I will shortly (hopefully) begin devleoping an ASP.Net web application to let users manage a remote sql server 2005 database (kind of like the php myAdmin tool for MySQL databases). Were not talking a server managament tool for DBAs, more an end user tool for managing personal databases (it seems that web hosting companies provide tools for MySQL, but if you use SQL Server, you're stuck unless you have management tools on your PC - and what about mac users?).Given that premise, what features should i attempt to include? Creating and modifying tables structures and data is an obvious inclusion, but what else? I also haven't yet decided whether to go about this using scripts or using SMO. I've read that SMO is backwards compatible across versions of SQL Server...how true is this? are there issues or is it seamless? Please post any comments or thoughts you have, and thanks for taking the time.

I am new to VWD, and web development. I installed VWD and SQL Server Express local.
I'm learning how to use the VWD with some of the walkthrough samples. It was going great until I got to the walkthrough where it show "how to use configure user and role with Web Site Admin Tool". I followed the walkthrough steps by step. I clicked the Security Tab and I got the following error:
"There is a problem with your selected data store. This can be caused by an invalid server name or credentials, or by insufficient permission. It can also be caused by the role manager feature not being enabled. Click the button below to be redirected to a page where you can choose a new data store. The following message may help in diagnosing the problem: Unable to connect to SQL Server database. "
I read some article. According to the articles, SQL Server Express will automatically create the asp database for the first time. but my SSE did not create the database.
What did you do wrong? Please help. Thank you

I wanted to know if there's a limit on how many targets I can manage in Multi Server Administration.In addition, are there any known limits regarding managing SQL instances with different versions (SQL 2005,2008,2008R2 and 2012).

I am running SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition with SP2 on Windows XP professional. When I check the microsoft documentation, it says that it is not possible to setup multiserver administration in standard edition. Have anyone tried this in Standard edition.

I installed SQL Server 2005 Express Edition, I can login to it just fine using SQL Server Management Studio Express. I ran the aspnet_regsql and it created the aspnetdb database. But when I try to test the AspNetMembershipProvider or go to the Security tab in the ASP.NET Web Site Administration Tool it does not work. I have tried messing with the connectionString of the LocalSqlServer in the machine.config, but to no avail. My SQL Server is installed on the Default Instance. Can someone help me get ASP.NET Web Site Administrator to work with my SQL Server 2005 Express Edition?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm not quite sure where to post this question, so I'll try here. We've been struggling getting SQL2005 reporting services integrated with Share Point Services 3.0 for several days now.
We've installed SQL Reporting Services with SP2 and run the SharePoint Reporting Services add-in. We've been able to go through the SQL Reporting Services Configuration and now were at the last step in the SharePoint Application Management Reporting Services configuration.
The first two steps of Manage Integration Settings and Grant Database Access was sucessful. The final step of "Set Server Defaults" gives us a 404 error message. There is nothing in the Event Log to suggest that there was a problem, and the SQL2005 Server is in SharePoint Integration mode. I've searched but can't find a solution. Can anyone steer me in the right direction please?

To All SQL Guru's
I have this simple problem. How can I make SQL Enterprise Manager list only one database that is accessible by client who registered the SQL Server on his / her Enterprise Manager. The user has been granted access to only one database. But every time I register the server in the client's SQL Server Enterpise Manager it lists all database and user database with it.
I just want it to show only one or two or as how many database that login has granted access to and eliminate the database from the SQL Server Enterprise Manager's database list.
Please Help
Thanks

Hi all,
We are about to have 'colocated servers' for our web pages, mail and on line catalogues. The NT administrator is going to use 'pcAnywhere' to administer the servers. I prefer to register the SQL server in Enterprise Manager,using the IP address.
Are there any known advantages between pcAnywhere against using enterprise manager, particularly any security issues?
Many thanks in advance

I have configured a master server to do multiserver administration and configured my production server as a client. My problem is that when I try to create a multi system maintenance plan it says that I get a security error and it won't create the plan. I have local admin rights to both systems. Do I need domain admin rights?

View 1 Replies View RelatedHi all!
We would like to create an Intranet based cube administration tool.
Power users should be able to process cubes and dimensions. This works
and all the cubes, dimensions and even databases from the SSAS can be
displayed in the web! ASP.NET@C# combined with
Microsoft.AnalysisServices offer a lot of very good possibilities!
But we still have a problem:
How ist it possible to show some kind of progress bar (maybe in a self refreshing iframe or a new window??)??
When a cube/dimension is processed the user does not get ANY feedback
(of course the webserver waits to finish the process() method.
I tried to start a different thread an this even works!
I want to show our powerusers at least some kind of progress (%, events, what ever).
can someone help?? we are totally lost with that topic!
I already had a look at the example from:

But it did not lead me to a propper solution :)

Hi...
Does anybody know of an open source script I can download that will enable me to manage an SQL database? I basically need to access and modify the database from any machine that may not have SQL Enterprise Manager Installed. I was thinking of writing my own script to do this but I assumed that there is probably already one out there.
Does anyone have a user administration tool that they like? It seems that there are two common operations that have to be performed:
1. Create a new login for a user, and grant all of the database access rights and role memberships already assigned to another user. In other words, "Make User B just like User A." This same operation has to be performed for multiple servers.
2. Copy a login to a different server. This is usually done to add someone to a test environment. The database names and role names are the same, but the server is different.
In our environment, adding a new employee involves going to three different servers, finding a "model" login, and adding the database access rights for three or four databases, with three or four role memberships in each database. Some databases have thirty or more roles defined, so it's easy to miss a checkmark when scrolling through a list of that size.
I have tinkered with some scripts to do this, but they usually fail because things like sp_addrolemember only work in the current database. I am about to start writing something in VB to do this, but I don't want to reinvent the wheel if someone has already done something similar.
Is it possible to administer both SQL7 & SQL2000 databases from the same console ?? It's fine administering SQL 6.5 & SQL7, as 6.5 had no MMC, but it seems that SQL7 & SQL2000 have the same MMC.
Thanks,
Jazz.

View 1 Replies View RelatedHi,We are a systems research group at the Computer Science departmentatRutgers University, and are conducting a survey to understand detailsabout network, systems and database administration. We hope that thisinformation would help us recreate a realistic environment to helpresearch in 'systems management'.We request network, systems, and database administrators to take thissurvey. As an incentive, all surveys completed in their entirety willbeentered into a drawing of a number of $50 gift certificates (fromAmazon.com).We hope you have a few minutes to take the survey which is located at:http://vivo.cs.rutgers.edu/administration_survey.htmlResearch in our group:The goal of our research is to improve the overall availability andmaintainability of services. Since administrators form an integral partof these services, a key aspect of this work is to build environmentsand tools that ease the task of service administration. In particular,environments which would help administrators know how their actionsmight impact the real service (before performing them for real), webelieve would be useful in preventing inadvertent actions. This surveytries to understand the existing environments, what administrators docurrently to test the 'validity' of their actions, and the difficultiesthey face in doing so. The two specific systems we are looking at arenetworks and databases, as we believe these are important components ofmany services.If you have any questions regarding this survey or our work, feel freeto email us:Fabio Oliveira (fabiool at cs || rutgers || edu), orKiran Nagaraja (knagaraj at cs || rutgers || edu)Thanks for your time,Fabio OliveiraPhD student, Vivo Research Group (http://vivo.cs.rutgers.edu)Rutgers University
