Checking The User's Server Role
Jul 23, 2005
I would like to determine if a particular user has sysadmin server
role. Is there a way to do this via the connection string? Currently
our code checks if a login is valid using SQLDriverConnect, however we
need to be certain that the user can login and modify the schema.
Is it possible to fetch a user's server role to determine if it has a
sysadmin server role?

I have a user with DBCREATOR Server role only. That user is able to create database but create table permission denied.
how would I set permission on this user, so that this user can create databases and automatically becomes the DBOWNER of that database and can do any action on that database.
Thanks,

I wish to create a user that can backup any or all databases in our SQLServer 2000 Instance. I thought there would be a server role for thisfunction, however I can only find that after I grant access of adatabase to the user, then I can choose ds_backupoperator.I want to create a user that will have the ability to backup all thedatabases. I dont wish to have to come back to the server after a newtable is created and add the backup user to that table.I want SA w/o the full privilage...am I crazy?Any Suggestions?TIARobBackgroup: We currently have about 10 SQL servers, and adding more inthe future. I am using SQLBackup from Idera along with HP SurestoreTape library (60 slots,2- DLT8000 drives with 40/80 GB capacity) withArcServe from Computer Associates. I want to have this automated tobackup to file then tape, regardless of what databases get created.

Good Day,
I am having a problem with creating databases in MS SQL 2005 Server. When I attempt to assign an User Mapping for my SQL user account to the newly created database, the "dbo" user and schema is already assigned. When I try to drop this user in favor of my own, I receive an error message: Cannot alter the user "dbo" (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 15150). I am connected to my database engine through the "sa" account.
Regards,
Keith

An old website I inherited uses sa to connect to SQL SessionState and had the details in the web.config. This is bad for security.The session state database is of -sstype "t" which is defined as:Temporary. Session state data is stored in the SQL Server tempdb database. Stored procedures for managing session state are installed in the SQL Server ASPState database. Data is not persisted if you restart SQL. This is the default.What kind of WIndows user, SQL Login, role and permissions do I need to create to make Session State secure? (Windows Server 2012 and SQL Server 2012 mixed mode authentication, Webfarm).

We have been working on an application that will be using a forms-authenticated report server (RS2005) as a reporting back-end. Using the reporting services web service I have been able to assign permissions to objects in reporting services no problem. The issue is that each user needs to be added to the System User role to be able to use the report builder properly. I can't seem to find a way to do this programmatically. Any idea?

Hi everyone,
I try to add a db_role or a user to all my databases with one script. Although parsing doesn't report any problem I get a Syntax error during execution.
I first select the database names into a #temp table which has two columns, ID and dbname.
After that I use the following code:
DECLARE @Count smallint
declare @dbVarchar(20)
SET @Count = 1
WHILE (@Count <=(SELECT MAX(ID) FROM #temp))
BEGIN
Exec ("USE @db")
EXEC sp_adduser 'test'
EXEC sp_addrolemember 'my_role', 'testrole'
SET @COUNT = @COUNT + 1
SET @db = (SELECT dbname FROM #temp WHERE ID = @Count)
END
It seems that the "Use @db" part has no value for the variable @db.
Does anybody knows how to solve this?

Can anyone out there help me write a sp to determine if a user has a certain role?
I'm trying to use "sp_helpuser @UserName".
Can I declare a cursor with "EXEC sp_helpuser @UserName"? I'm not having success with this.
What about SELECT [GroupName] FROM EXEC sp_helpuser @UserName WHERE [GroupName] = @GroupName? Again, syntax error.
Is there already a better way that someone knows of?

I am setting up security for access of database tables for members in a specific Windows User Group.I want to check in a SQL script if this Windows User group is added and if so, add database users and grant SELECT on specific tables.
I have tried this:
SELECT * FROM master.sys.syslogins WHERE name like '%FoeUsers' AND isntgroup = '1'
but that selects a SQL user or group and not a Windows Group.Is there a way to check if a Windows NT (active Directory) user group exists?

NOTE: I am talking about roles in my sql server - NOT in asp.net. I need to create a stored procedure that retrieves the roles that the currently logged in sql user has for a different database. I have the code that gets the roles for the user, but it only works if the user is in the database. I want to be in one database, and get the roles for a different database. I have tried using USE DATABASE, but this is not allowed in a store procedure.

Hi All,
I'm rather new to the MS SQL Server development in general and especially to its data security architecture and features - I'd like to know if it is possible for end-user to retrieve/update(!?) the data using a SP which executes on a table for which she/he doesn't have any privileges.
TIA,
Shamil

Hi,
I need to read and subsequently modify the privileges (rights) of a certain SQL Server user / role from within a Visual Basic Program.
Modifying seems to be easy using standard statements like GRANT/REVOKE. But what about reading all the rights a user has ?
I have researched SQL-DMO, but didn't find what I'm looking for.
Any idea ?
Mike

I am not a DBA so please be gentle...
I am trying to export all of the user and role permissions out of several databases for auditing purposes. I see the Users and Roles listed under the Security tree view when I log into the database, but I do not see an option to export or query the permissions. In addition, we do not have any tables that reference user permissions in our databases. So, how would one go about exporting or querying this information?
I've seen similar topics where they recommend querying sys tables to gather the info, but I don't see those tables either. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
All my thanks!

Edit: I should add in that I am connecting to 7 and 2k DBs using 2k5 SMS. Not sure if that makes a difference...

Hi!
I've restored a backup from server A in server B. In server A I used to have a db_owner, called sitebase. After restoring the backup in server B, I created the user sitebase again and tried to grant him db_owner through Server Manager but I got the error: user or role already exists in the current database.
How can I avoid this situation and grant db_owner to him?
Thanks,

I get the following errors associated with trying to create an SP.
Server: Msg 170, Level 15, State 1, Procedure AddFortuneUser, Line 8
Line 8: Incorrect syntax near '@newuser'.
Server: Msg 137, Level 15, State 2, Line 1
Must declare the variable '@newuser'.
Can anyone explain why I have to do a declare.
I suspect I have to issue "declare @newuser sysname" somewhere but I'm not sure why.
The following is the code I'm trying to run.
My intent would be to create a form for the Admin Clerk that would call this SP. That way they can create a generic login. They have an application that allows them to change the password after the fact.
/*
Created for Admin person to allow them to add a basic SQL Login Account
forcing the user to be a member of a specific role 'helmsman'
in a specific database 'Fortune'
*/
CREATE PROCEDURE AddFortuneUser
@newuser char(128)
AS
EXEC master..sp_addlogin @loginame=@newuser, @passwd =substring(@newuser,1,8), @defdb =Fortune
GO
if not exists (select * from dbo.sysusers where name = @newuser and uid < 16382)
EXEC sp_grantdbaccess @loginame=@newuser, @name_in_db=@newuser
GO
exec master..sp_addrolemember @rolename ='helmsman', @membername =@newuser
GO

I need a stored procedure to find out if the current user is a member of a certain role. I want to pass the role name and return a bit to tell whether he is a member or not. I have this code to list the groups the current user is a member of but I don't know how to search or do a "SELECT FROM" on the results.DECLARE @usr varchar(32) SET @usr = USER EXEC sp_helpuser @usr But if the current user is a member of more than one role it returns multiple rows. So if I could do something like: DECLARE @grpName varchar(32) SELECT * FROM (EXEC sp_helpuser @usr) WHERE GroupName=@grpNameIF rowcount > 0 THENRETURN 1ELSERETURN 0END IF I know that doesn't work so how can I do this?

I've created a database in SQL Express and I have a Windows form attempting to connect to it through SQL Authentication. Connection string:
private string connString = @"Data Source=.sqlexpress;Initial Catalog=SQLTestDatabase;User ID=SearchAppRole; Password=password;";
The role I have added to the database is an Application Role. It has been added to the Database permissions with Grant checked for "Select" and "Authenticate".
If I test this with query analyzer, it returns expected results (if I remove Grant from 'Select', it fails)
sp_setapprole 'SearchAppRole', 'password'
select * from recipe
If I edit my connection string (for testing purposes) to use the sa account, the application can connect and run the Select statement:
private string connString = @"Data Source=.sqlexpress;Initial Catalog=SQLTestDatabase;User ID=sa; Password=sa_password;";
However, I cannot get the application to successfully logon and run the select statement when using the user id and password of the Application Role. I get error:
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Login failed for user 'SearchAppRole'. at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlInternalConnection.OnError(SqlException exception, Boolean breakConnection) at System.Data.SqlClient.TdsParser.ThrowExceptionAndWarning(TdsParserStateObject stateObj
I can't find much information on Application Role...I just want one basic permission for the application as a whole. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

How do I get a particular user to be a choice under the db_owner role for a particular database?
The user is listed under logins and even shows to be the db_owner for the database under the database access tab of the login properties. This is SQL 2000.
Thanks,
David P.
