Hi, Is it possible to store encryped user passwords in a table and be able to retieve them in readable form.
Thanks
I'm running SQL 70 SP 3 on Nt4.
We store passwords of users of our website. They need to be autenticated and based on that it gives them access to what they are entitled. But its not like NT or server authentication.
This has been setup so that we have a user table and it stores the password. However, it stores it in plain text. Is there any way I can encrypt this field so it is unreadable? Is there a property or a datatype that I can't find? Is there a way to simulate the encryption?
Any ideas or help are appreciated.
Thanks

Hello,
I have a simple .NET page that asks the user to create a new account. One of the fields on that page is 'Password'. I store the password in a SQL 2000 Database. However, it appears in the database as clear-text.
Is there a way to encrypt this so it doesn't appear as clear-text in the DB?
Thanks!

Hello,
Can someone recommend a free tool to handle storing dba/os passwords that can be used by the dba team?
Thanks.
Users were able tolog on to our SQL 2000 servers with their passwords being case-insensitive.
Now with SQL 2005 some users can't logon because SQL 2005 passwords are case-sensitive.
Can SQL 2005 be configured so that passwords are NOT case sensitive???
Thanks!

View 3 Replies View RelatedHas anyone worked with storing alphanumeric passwords as binary fields in databases? I have worked up the following command to convert an NVARCHAR field to a BINARY type and it seems to work fine.
UPDATE USERS SET USERPASS=CAST(CAST('TEST' AS NCHAR(5)) AS BINARY) WHERE USERID='USER1
But, I can just as easily convert it back to NVARCHAR and obtain the password with this command:
SELECT CAST(CAST(USERPASS AS NCHAR(20)) AS NVARCHAR(20)) FROM USERS WHERE USERID='USER1'
I guess my question is how can I encrypt the password to make it more difficult to convert back to NVARCHAR?
Does some know of an easy to understand way to encrypt a single table column? I have never worked with encryption before.

Hi, all experts here,
I am wondering if tempdb stores all results tempararily whenever I query a large fact table with over 4 million records which joins another dimension table? Since each time when I run the query, the tempdb grows to nearly 1GB which nearly runs out all the space on my local system drive, as a result the performance totally down. Is there any way to fix this problem? Thanks a lot in advance and I am looking forward to hearing from you shortly for your kind advices.
With best regards,
Yours sincerely,
I need to capture changes in my table and store it in another table. Here is how my table would look like.
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[ABC](
[Hno] [nchar](10) NULL,
[Status] [smallint] NULL,
[Date] [datetime] NULL
) ON [PRIMARY]
[Code] ....
In return I need to check column Status for whenever the value has changed and need to store that in my table. If there are two records for which value in column Status is same, I need to pick only one of the records and that being the earliest of them and therefore the Date field is mentioned in my table . My output should be something like below.
100 02014-12-20 00:55:44.667
100 12014-12-22 00:55:44.723
100 02014-12-24 00:55:44.723

Hi,
I have a question. I have a standard query that retrieves the list of users from a database. The query uses "exist" statement and inside it I have another smaller query. The smaller query which used withing exist statement is called numerous times during the query execution. I am wondering if I can speed things up by storing result of a smaller query in a table rather than asking DB to run it again and again. The query takes over a minute to run and I am trying to find a way of speeding it up.
Thanks a lot

Hello, Folks. I am not sure if this can be done (and a brief search ofthis group didn't yield any results that I thought would do the trick)but if it can be done it would make my life easier so here goes.First, what I am trying to accomplish is to make a program I've writtenautomatically update itself if there is a newer version on the network.Second, my application runs on one or more computers at manygeographically separated locations. I have remote control softwarethat enables me to remotely update and troubleshoot my application butI since I have to pay for this access per computer I don't have theability to control each and every computer that runs my software (forthose clients with more than one computer that uses my software).Third, my application uses as its data storage system MSDE 2000 (withcurrent service pack).Fourth, my users are not technical people and I want to rely on them aslittle as possible.Fifth, not all of the workstations are Internet enabled or connected,so having the application check a website for an update is notfeasible.Finally, to bring those different pieces together, what I want to beable to do is connect to and control the "server" (the computer withMSDE installed on it) and store in the database what the currentversion number is along with the current program files. Then, when theapplication launches, it will check that stored version number againstit's own version number to determine if there is a newer versionavailable. If there is a newer version available I want it to updateitself (that workstation) by retrieving that newer software from thedatabase. I want to avoid file sharing because it's problematic andsince I already have SQL Server (MSDE) running on the network I'd liketo use that.Is there some way that I can either a) store my program files (one EXEapproximately 5MB in size and one OCX approximately 250KB in size) in atable to be retrieved by my application so it can update itself or b) away to get SQL Server (MSDE) to read a file locally on the server andreturn it to my application just like it would any recordset so I couldjust tell it where the file was and let it read it from whicheverfolder it's stored in?I've looked at making a column of datatype Binary, and perhaps that'sthe way I'll go (re-creating the field to the correct size each time Ido an update or perhaps making it really big so I don't have to worryabout the size). But I thought I'd ask around first since this isn'tanything I know much about.Thank you for your time and help.--HC

I'm writing a search engine and I want to make a search and then, after
I've recieved the results, put them into some sort of temporary(in
mememory) table so that I can do another query on that temporary table.
I saw something about temp tables (in T-SQL) in the
help guide, but I still want to know how to do a query on a regular
table and then store those results in a temporary table to perform a
query on that. Could anyone show me some example or something?

Can you store images in a database or in a table, or do you have to only store the image path/name in the database while the image is in another folder? IF anyone knows, please share with me. Thanks.

I am new to SQL programming. This is what I am trying to do in store procedure.
Alter a table - adding two columns.
Then update those columns
Both the above action in same procedure .
When I execute them - it complains that the columns I am adding in the first part of store procedure , does not exists.
So the SP looks like this
create store procedure <name> as
alter table <name> ADD
column_1 nvarchar (256),
column_2 nvarchar (256);
update table
set
column_1 = <condition>
column_2 = <condition>
The SQL complains -
invalid column name column_1
invalid column name column_2

Hello,
In my application, I have a master table that stores information about some other user tables. These other tables are all of different types, that is, the number and type of columns need not match across the user tables.
From the application perspective, logically each of these user tables is nothing but a column field within the master table.
I have seen references about "table" data type in SQL Server. It is possible to create a table that actually has a table data type as its field?
Thank you in advance for your help.

Hello,
I want to store the contents of an MS Word document (or a brief Word extract) in a database field. This document could contain carriage returns, boldface, etc. I have tried storing the Word doc in fields of type nchar, text, and sql_variant but they do not keep the Word formatting. I found that the "Extended Properties" attribute of a field seems to retain these properties. (Though if I recall right, Extended Properties has a length limitation and is a pain in the #*&_*^! to access)
What is the "right" way to do what I'm trying? Keep in mind that we may want to view this document under either "Query Analyzer" or print a hardcopy version. And we'd like both to be intelligible!
TIA,
Barkingdog
