Force Protocol Encryption

Aug 26, 2004

I am connection to a SQL server that has force protocol encryption checked. From my ASP.net application, specifically in my connection string, what parameter do I need to use to take advantage of this encryption?





Thanks!

Force Protocol Encryption In SQL2005 Client Configuration Doesn't...

Feb 5, 2007

I am accessing a SQL2005 Express SP1 Server via TCP/IP (all machines fully up to date with windows update). For ease of configuration the Server IP is mapped to an Alias in Native Client Configuration Manager. On the Client Force Protocol Encryption is set to Yes and Trust Server Certificate is set to No. The clients are accessing the DB via SQL 2005 Management studio express and Ms Access 2003 (an access adp front end to the sql database).

As a test i turned off force encryption on the server. A Network trace shows no encryption! Turning on force encryption on the server corrects this.

As a further test I configured the server with a certificate the client doesn't trust. No error is generated by the un-trusted certificate! The only way to generate the certificate error is to enable encryption in the connection properties of each application. Why isn't the Native Client Configuration Manager utility enforcing this???

This brings me on to a second (off-topic problem). In my access adp file, if I enable €œuse encryption for data€? advanced option under the database connection dialog all works as expected (encryption + certificate verification). However, I am programmatically updating the connection in VBA

Application.CurrentProject.OpenConnection "Provider=SQLOLEDB.1;Data Source=AliasName;Use Encryption for Data=True;..."

If I do this no encryption is enabled!!! Access seems to just ignore the encryption statement.

Has anybody got any ideas as to why either of these issues are occurring or if there are any workarounds?

Thanks

Stuart

Force Encryption

Jun 8, 2006

I want to configure SQL 2k5 Express so that all connections are
encrypted. I've found the documentation that gives the How-To steps,
but I don't see the SSL option in the Network Configuration.

Is this possible with the Express edition?

Do I need to do something special with the installation?



Thanks,

SQL 2012 :: Force Encryption With DoD Certificate

Sep 15, 2015

I have a SQL Server 2012 Standard and needed to fulfill a requirement to set Force Encryption on the Server with a DoD Certificate.

I will be altering my client connections to use Encrypt=True; TrustServerCertificate=True (The client is a .Net Web Application).

The OS is where SQL Server 2012 Standard resides is Windows 2008 R2 DataCenter Service Pack 1 64-bit.

What I am needing to know is where do I get the DoD Certificate from? and Do I just install it on the server where SQL Server resides?

Force Encryption Login Not Working

Aug 8, 2007

Hi,
i've enabled the certification authentication login i use SQL 2K5 ENT
my problem is like that: in the client network utility i check the Force protocol encryption and connect
to the server the client can't connect because he doesn't have the certificate install on his machine which it's OK.
the problem is when i remove the Force protocol encryption on the client he connect successfully without the
certificate install on his machine or any thing.
i double check that on the server i've YES on the Force Encryption in the protocols For MSSQLSERVER.
why is that???

Force Encryption On Server Not Working???

May 8, 2007

Hi,



I am at a loss here, unless I misunderstand the whole point about server encryption. My 2005 SQL server has a certificate from a trust CA, I have turned on the 'force encryption' flags on the server. My understanding is any client will be "force" to connect with encryption?? I found out that unless I turn on encryption on my clients, the server will allow connections without the requiring encryption. Am I missing something here? Thanks for any help you can provide.

How To Force Encryption On A Per-database Or Per-user Basis

Oct 30, 2007

I would like to force only certain users on certain databases to use encrypted connections for accessing our 2005 SQL Server. I've found a clunky way to do it, via registering a login event notification and using the kill statement. However, that's ugly, and I don't think there is any guarantee that the event will always fire before an evil client could get off a few evil commands. Is this supported, or is the only supported feature the forceencryption option, which is server-wide?

SQL 2012 :: Enabling SSL Encrypted Connections Without Using Force Encryption Option

Apr 1, 2015

I have a customer who is looking to encrypt their applications connection to the back-end SQL server. I've gotten a valid certificate for the server from a trusted CA, and it's installed on the server (shows up in Personal certificates in the Certificate MMC when selecting the computer) and I can choose it in the drop down on the certificates tab of the SQL Network protocols properties in Configuration Manager.

Now, my question: If I select the certificate but do NOT enable the "Force Encryption" option, the client will be able to request encryption on their end, and the connection will then be encrypted. If the client (other applications) do NOT request encryption, they will still be able to connect, but their connection will be un-encrypted. URL....

Lastly, I could've swore I had found some information indicating that some methods of establishing a connection to SQL can fail when Force Encryption is enabled, as the method doesn't support SSL encryption.

SQL Security :: Encryption 2005 - User Defined Function For Encryption And Decryption

Oct 7, 2015

I have created two user defined functions for encryption and decryption using passphrase mechanism. When I call encryption function, each time I am getting the different values for the same input. While I searching a particular value, it takes long time to retrieve due to calling decryption function for each row.

best way to encrypt and decrypt using user defined functions.Below is the query which is taking long time.

SELECT ID FROM table WITH (NOLOCK)
                     WHERE dbo.DecodeFunction(column) = 'value'

When I try to use symetric or asymetric encryption, I am not able to put "OPEN SYMETRIC KEY" code in a function. So, I am using PassPhrase mechanism.

In a stored procedure I have, I need to make a call out to a DR server, I believe the named pipes protocol is causing errors for long running sql. Is there anyway I can change the call

TCP/IP Network Protocol

Jan 7, 1999

Hi everyone,

I want to use TCP/IP network protocol on the server and have my clients using TCP/IP Net library. I have having some problems with this...The server will not register if I only have TCP/IP without Named Pipes using Standard Security in SQL Server. If I have TCP/IP and Named Pipes, the client can't register the server. Can someone explain in detail to me on using TCPIP on the server and client?

Thanks...

Has anyone ever seen TCP/IP become a disabled protocol without manual intervention from a user?

My websites just stopped talking to my MSSQL db and when I went into sql client config utility on the web boxes, tcp/ip was disabled. Any clues? Can't find anything to support this in the event or web logs.

Protocol Error In TDS Stream

Oct 13, 2006

Hi everybody,

I dont know if this is the right place to put in this question.

The problem is


I have an application developed using VB 6.0 and SQl Server 2000. It was working fine on my machine. I had MS XP installed on my system alongwith SP1. But when i installed MS XP SP2, i got the error while saving the record.
the error is
"Protocol Error in TDS Stream".
I went to microsoft site searcing for the resolution of this error. They gave the solution of installing MDAC 2.8 SP1. But when i install MDAC 2.8, it gives me this error
"MDAC 2.8 RTM is incompatible with this version of Windows. All of its features are currently part of Windows."
And since MDAC 2.8 is not installed so i can not install MDAC 2.8 SP1 also.

I have MDAC 2.5 installed on the system.

How can i resolve it. Please give a solution as soon as possible. I am in great need of it.

Enabling TCP/IP Protocol In SQL Server 6.5

Apr 7, 2004

I am using SQL Server 6.5. By default TCP/IP protocol is not enabled (1433 port is not opened by the server). How can I enable this so that I can use a JDBC driver to connect to it.

In SQL Server 2000, the "SQL Server Network Utility" helps us to enable the TCP/IP protocol. But not able to figure our how/where this can be done in 6.5.

Fastest Connection Protocol?

Jan 10, 2008



Can anyone point to a reference which documents the pros and cons of the various connection protocols, such as Shared Memory vs. TCP/IP? I thought I saw something indicating that shared memory is fastest, which would explain why this protocol is tried first, but now I can't find it. This resource has information on creating connection strings, but not the advantages and disadvantages.

Problems Connecting Via Multi-Protocol

Jan 7, 1999

Hello,

I cannot connect to a SQL Server that is in domain "x" from my client which is in domain "y" using
Multi-Protocol. There is no trust between domains x and y. The SQL Server has Multi-Protocol installed and is working
correctly ie. I can connect to it from other clients in the same domin via Multi-Protocol.

I have tried multiple things to make this work. Adding the SQL Server to my LMHOST file. Adding advanced settings for the
SQL Server in my "SQL Client Configuration Utility".......All with no avail. I have received different error messages which I have
found little about. "ConnectionOpen (RPC open())", "OS ERROR 1703", "OS ERROR 11".......

Has anyone had similar problems? If so, is there a fix or something that I could be missing?

Thanks in Advance!!

The Configuration Of The AdminConnectionTCP Protocol In The SQL Instance XX Is Not Valid.

Aug 28, 2007

I have a 2 node SQL Server 2005 cluster with 2 named instances. Both appear
to be working properly with no issues but I have the following warning
message in the event viewer and I would like to know if it is something I
should be worried about.

Source: SQL Browser
Type: Warning
Category: None
User: N/A
Description: The configuration of the AdminConnectionTCP protocol in the
SQL instance XX is not valid.

The servers in the cluster are running with Windows Server 2003 X64 Enterprise
Edition, SQL 2005 Enterprise Edition SP2 X64.

I have failed the cluster over and I continue to get the message when I
start the instances in the cluster admin, but I don't appear to have any
other symptons. Client machines can connect without any problem and
transactional replication works no matter what node I bring the instance up
on.

I changed default TCP/IP port and disable/enable Named pipes, but no luck so far.
I see lots of postings about this message but it seems to be related to
SQLExpress and I am not using that here.

Any info would be appreciated.

The Configuration Of The AdminConnectionTCP Protocol In The SQL Instance SQLEXPRESS Is Not Valid

Mar 4, 2006

Hello,

I am getting the following warning in the Application Event Log:

The configuration of the AdminConnectionTCP protocol in the SQL instance SQLEXPRESS is not valid.

The warning is logged by the SQLBrowser service.

This is happening on Windows 2003 server with SQL Server Express 2005. On the same machine SQL Server 2000 is installed.

I am currently unable to connect from remote clients to the instance of SQL Express and I believe it has to do with this warning (I've tried all the usual remote connection troubleshooting without success - enabled protocols, SQL Browser Service running, there is no firewall on the server, I disabled firewall on the client when trying to connect).

Does anyone know how to resolve this issue?

If you need additional information please let me know.

SQL Server Admin 2014 :: How To Configure Named Pipes Protocol Correctly

Oct 5, 2015

I've been reading about the protocols and i've been trying to connect to my SQL SERVER using each one of the protocols, but i think I'm missing something, i dont have any problems using Shared Memory and TCP protocols, but I'm not pretty sure how to connect to my remote SQL SERVER using NAMED PIPES protocols. The books On Line of Microsoft refer that you can connect using this protocol using the next syntax: Connecting to a default instance by specifying a named pipe name:

APPHOSTpipeunitapp

Connecting to a named instance by specifying a named pipe name:

APPHOSTpipeMSSQL$SQLEXPRESSSQLquery

Connecting to default instance by name, forcing a named pipes connection:

np:APPHOST

Connecting to named instance by name, forcing a named pipes connection:

np:APPHOSTSQLEXPRESS

But I can't connect to my remote SQL SERVER, if i try the same with my local SQL SERVER i don't have any problems. I've been reading the articles so many times searching something about Named Pipes is only for local connections, but Microsoft say that it's posible to connect to a remote SQL SERVER, but i don't know how to do that. The firewall is disabled, I changed the APPHOST in the above syntax for the IP address of my SQL SERVER but it didn't work..

The Incoming Tabular Data Stream (TDS) Remote Procedure Call (RPC) Protocol Stream Is Incorrect

May 22, 2006

I've read the other posts related to this issue, but I'm just REALLY confused as to whats happening in my case. Like everyone else it was working fine in SQL 2000 but now in SQL 2005 there is an issue. I'm calling a stored procedure with parameters defined like this:

@action varchar(10),
@GLTransactionID int = NULL OUTPUT ,
@GLBatchID int = NULL ,
@GLAccountID int = NULL ,
@CurrencyID int = NULL ,
@LocalDebit decimal(28, 13) = NULL ,
@LocalCredit decimal(28, 13) = NULL ,
@BaseDebit decimal(28, 13) = NULL ,
@BaseCredit decimal(28, 13) = NULL ,
@TransID int =NULL,
@Description varchar(255) = NULL

I am calling this proc from VS.NET 2003 using the .Net SqlClient Data Povider (C#). I'm setting the values of the parameters like this:

cm.Parameters.Add("@action", "insert");
cm.Parameters.Add("@GLBatchID", _gLBatchID.DBValue);
cm.Parameters.Add("@GLAccountID", _gLAccountID.DBValue);
cm.Parameters.Add("@CurrencyID", _currencyID.DBValue);
cm.Parameters.Add("@LocalDebit", _localDebit.DBValue);
cm.Parameters.Add("@LocalCredit", _localCredit.DBValue);
cm.Parameters.Add("@BaseDebit", _baseDebit.DBValue);
cm.Parameters.Add("@BaseCredit", _baseCredit.DBValue);
cm.Parameters.Add("@TransID", _transID.DBValue);
cm.Parameters.Add("@Description", _description.DBValue);

When I execute the call to the stored proc I get this:

"The incoming tabular data stream (TDS) remote procedure call (RPC) protocol stream is incorrect. Parameter 8 ("@BaseDebit"): The supplied value is not a valid instance of data type numeric. Check the source data for invalid values. An example of an invalid value is data of numeric type with scale greater than precision."

Using the VS.NET command window I then inspect that parameter to see what the heck is going on and get this:

?cm.Parameters["@BaseDebit"].SqlDbType
Decimal
?cm.Parameters["@BaseDebit"].Precision
0
?cm.Parameters["@BaseDebit"].Scale
22
?cm.Parameters["@BaseDebit"].DbType
Decimal
?cm.Parameters["@BaseDebit"].Value
1000000
[System.Decimal]: 1000000

So I set a decmial parameter to 1,000,000, that parameter in the DB is defined as decimal(28,13) so should fit no problem, but it seems the Sql data provider is confused and thinks 1,000,000 is decimal (0,22)???

Force Restore

Sep 7, 2005

Hi All

Forgive my ignorance. I have been told you cannot run a force restore without SQL Agent running? Is that so?

Also, is it possible to execute a force restore from a command line. If so, how would you go about do this.

I ask these questions because recently our database and MSBD files became corrupted and couldn't restore them in the normal way. Had to manually rebuild MSDB file.

Thanks

Can I Force Printing?

Sep 1, 2005

I have a script or SP that takes a very long time to performmultiple tasks, and after each one there is a PRINT statementthat shows the time and what was just accomplished, to help memonitor what's happening and estimate how long it will take.In a script, I can put a GO after each PRINT to cause the outputto appear immediately, but that's not possible inside an SP.Instead, it seems the output goes to a buffer, and the bufferis only output when a PRINT causes the buffer to become full.Sometimes there is a long delay before the buffer fills. Isthere a way other than GO to cause immediate printing? (Iguess I could just use longer messages, and fill up thebuffer with every one, but that's not very elegant.)Thanks,Jim GCountrywide Home Loans
