I have a number of jobs that will need to be run in an adhoc fashion(no set schedule).
I will be utilizing a mainframe operations staff and would like to limit their access on SQLServer
as much as possible while allowing them start jobs and view history. What would be the best way to go about this?
Thanks in advance.
Whats the difference between db_owner and public role...
I want to create a role and add user to it..that user will have all the permissions on all the tables (our tables), all permissions on all stored procedures, triggers, views...that user is owner of all objects....right now we have to manually grant these permissions to each user, and I was think if I create a role I don't have to what happens with stored procedures and jobs ??
Can some one help me the script to do this... am reading lots of articles about these but none have clear instructions...
How do you create
db_datareader, db_datawriter roles ??
I cannot use EM as I have to send this script with our application..
Thanks

Hi,
How to set permissions for users to run or edit packages?
How to notify the changes made to packages and where to find the change notifications?
We setup a number of roles with access rights to tables in the DB. This week for some unknown reason, rights on these roles disappeared.
We had to run a restore to reset the roles in the database. After the restore, we could not reproduce the problem.
Are there scenarios to avoid that would cause rights to drop from roles and users? (These rights were gone not just hidden)

Hello,I am trying to write a script using SQL Server 2000 to list all of theroles that have any permissions on a specified object (view, table,sp, etc.). Essentially I am trying to script what is displayed whenone selects the 'list only users/user-defined database roles/publicwith permissions to this object' option under 'manage permissions' inEM but without showing individual users, only roles. I've looked atthe system sp's and the information_schema views but none of thoseseem to give this information. Am I going to have to look directly atthe system tables? If anyone has a script that does this for aspecified object or can point me to more specific information on howto do this I'd appreciate it. Thanks!Bruce
View 2 Replies View RelatedDevelopers need to view and modify jobs on some servers without being sysadmin. We've added the developers to the following MSDB roles:
SQLAgentOperatorRole
SQLAgentReaderRole
SQLAgentUserRole
Technically they should be able to view and modify jobs through Management Studio when being added only to SQLAgentOperatorRole. However they receive the following error when clicking on the Jobs folder regardless of the msdb role.
Execute Permission Denied on Object 'xp_sqlagent_enum_jobs', database 'mssqlsystemresource', schema 'sys'. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 229)
Our original two SQL 2005 servers do not produce this message, but all other instances do. All servers, but one, are SP2 so the service pack is not an issue. Any thoughts?
Thanks, Dave
I am in need of a utility (stored procedure, third party app, etc)that will help streamline the process of managing and auditing objectpermissions, users and roles on multiple sql server 2000 instanceswith multiple databases on each instance. That's a quick overview ofwhat I need, do I need to be more specific?Thanks.
View 2 Replies View RelatedA question on the permissions hierarchy:
Since logins, database users, and database roles are both principals and securables - what does it mean to GRANT permission on a login/user/role to another principal? Does it mean that for a login - you can GRANT permission to EXECUTE AS that login or modify it, for example?
I have jsut started using SQL server 7 and am having problems with accounts permissions, users,roles, groups, owners etc what are the differences?
View 1 Replies View RelatedAs part of our security project, I've done the following when logged in as 'sa':
Created database roles 'dbrole1' within dbAccount
Created login and user 'user1' and added user to be a member of 'dbrole1'
Granted execute permissions on sp1 and sp2 to 'dbrole1'
However, I didn't see the above permissions listed in SQL Server Management Studio - Database - Security - Roles - Database Roles - 'dbrole1' properties - securables
Any ideas? Thanks!
What permissions/roles/etc. are necessary for a SQL login to see and start jobs.
Thanks, I'm having trouble with sp_start_job (it says job does not exists, that another user can run just fine...)

I have a DTS package that exports data to a file, then run Win32 process pkzip to compress it to make it 4MB from 30MB so it can be emailed.
As this is to be run daily, I scheduled it, i.e. created a Job.
When running as a Job it fails in the pkzip section. The sqlservice account is not an NT system account for security reasons.
any ideas ?
TIA

I have several users that are a member
of a Windows Nt group. I want to be
able to allow this group to create,
update, and delete SQL Agent Jobs.
But I do not want them to be members
of the SYSADMIN role.
Everything that I have found states
that they must be members of this
server role to perform these actions.
Does anyone have an idea on how to
accomplish this? or point me in some
kind of direction to explore.

I have a job with a single ActiveX step that I have setup and am having problems running.
If i set the SQL Server Agent to run as an Administrator then my job processes fine however under the default setup which has the SQL Server Agent running as Local System I get an error.
I assume this is permissions problem so I created a basic windows user called ABC. I then created a credential called ABC linked to the windows user ABC. I then created a proxy that uses the credential ABC and then ticked the box that allows the proxy to run ActiveX scripts. I then set the ABC as a principle of the proxy.
I then set my single job step to be run under the ABC credential.
Still no luck. This is the first time i've worked with this sort of thing so I'm not sure if I'm going about it in the right way.
Please explain how i can have a job that runs as an active X script. I understand running sql server agent as administrator is bad for security so what are the alternatives?
Permissions on SQL Server Agent.
I would like to assign the permission to user ,who can edit all SQL agent job(even own by others) without assigning the sysadmin role.
This is sort of a DR issue since it involves reboots and power failures.
We have MSSQL 2005 SP1 and unpatched systems, but in particular we have this problem still with the SP1 server (in addition to the unpatched systems). Running on Win 2k3.
It seems that upon reboot, our stored SSIS jobs lose their pemissions and/or ownership for execution. It doesn't happen at every reboot or power failure, but seemingly more than half the time.
Here is the error reported:
The job failed. The owner () of job Job_1 does not have server access.
But checking the properties of the job and it shows an valid owner in the Owner field. I believe we are using Active Directory for authentication and the user listed is valid in that respect.
We have "fixed" this problem before by removing the job completely and re-installing it, with the same owner. No issues until the next system outage.
Has anyone else seen this before? Is there a fix or is this some kind of bug?
Hello,
I am new user of SQL Server. I have some problems with these words. I want to make my database works in my specified permissions. I will specify permissions with schemas and these schema wants an owner. I want this owner should be my user. When creating a user it needs a valid login. I am selecting my login and it occurs and error says this login has an different user. I am specifying permissions with roles. But i can't make association all of them. I hope i told my problem to you as well. If you explain these words to me and tell me how can i do my database's works with my own schemas, users and roles i'll be grateful. Thanks for advices.
Happy coding...
Can you write a stored procedure to add a user to your DB and set the roles the user belongs to?
I want to write a stored proc. to add users and set roles so it can be used in code instead of doing it manually.
After the user has been added and their roles set, can you write another stored proc. to give you what roles they belong to?
Apologies if my post does not fit into this forum. I initially tried the SQL Server Data Access forum but I now think my question is more security related.
Is it possible for a web user who has been successfully authenticated with forms authentication to be authorised to use a SQL Server 2000 role depending on a particular ASP.NET 2.0 role that they have been authorised to use? I understand that that I can assign a SQL Server 2000 role to the ASPNET or NETWORK SERVICE account but this will grant access to anonymous web users to the database role. I can ensure that I only call stored procedures which access sensitive data in web pages that are in restricted by ASP.NET roles. However, it would be nice to also restrict stored procedures via the ASP.NET 2.0 Forms Authentication roles.
If this is not possible have you got any bright ideas how I could restrict access to stored procedures who are anonymous web users.
Many thanks,
Mark
I'm developing an ASP.NET2.0 application which accesses a SQL Server 2005 Express database. I plan to use integrated security for access to the database.
I'm confused about the relationships between Windows groups, the ASP.NET web.config file <allow roles=.../> and SQL Server roles.
I would like to create a Windows group to which I can assign multiple users and grant that group access to a Web Site using windows authentication and also grant that windows group access to the database my web application uses.
I have gotten the combination of Windows Authentication to the web site and to the database to work for a specific windows user but I am having trouble determining the combination of database security entities I must create to allow access to my database by members of the windows group.
For a Windows user:
1. Create Windows user
In SQL Express
2. CREATE LOGIN FROM WINDOWS WITH DEFAULT_DATABASE =
3. CREATE USER FOR LOGIN
4. CREATE ROLE
5. EXEC sp_addrolemember <role-name> <user-name>
For a Windows group, what would be the equivalent commands necessary to grant a windows group access to my database? Specifying the Windows Group name in sp_addrolemember does not appear to be sufficient even though the documentation states that a windows group name is a valid value for the member name argument.
After reading Books Online, I am still confused with Database Role vs Application role.
My intention is to control the end users' authority on the database, where the end users will access through Winforms client application. With proper assignment of schema and database roles to an user, I believe this will enough to control the permisison of an user.
If this is the case, why Application role exists? When and why should I use Application Role? How is it different from Fixed Database Role?
Hi! Can anyone say which ms sql server predefined roles are similar to the following oracle predefined roles: dba, connect, resource. I already know that sysadmin in MS SQL Server is the same as DBA in Oracle but what about the rest?
Thanks a lot.
I am in the process of locking down the SQL Server in an environment that is considered to be in production (pilot stages) and there is no staging or test environment that mirrors it. I need assistance in determining the server and database roles to assign to existing logins, most of which currently have sa and dbowner rights. Because it is not a development environment, I need to be sure that downgrading the server and/or database level permissions will not break any functionality.
I'm starting with the logins that have the SA fixed server role. These logins need to be able to install applications that require the use of a backend database, which will be stored on SQL Server. In addition, through the installation process a new login/password for the newly created database(s) is normally created. For the existing logins with the SA fixed server role, will downgrading to the securityadmin and dbcreator roles be sufficient to facilitate those needs, or are those too much/ too little? And should any user account ever be granted the SA role? If so, what questions could I ask to determine this need?
Since these install process for these applications usually prompt to install using SA or local system account to authenticate to SQL to create the new database(s), that account should have securityadmin and dbcreator roles to create the database and its tables, as well as add a new login to that database.
Please address this question, keeping in mind that the logins will only be performing the described actions, installing apps using SQL Server as the backend database and adding a login to that database (which may or may not be done during the installation process).
Thank you,

Hi,
I'm looking for some guidance/help regarding setting up a sa - lite account in SQL 2005. I need to give another admin rights to create/monitor maintenance plans, backup and restore databases, monitor performance/logins, but NOT be able to have any rights on several tables (and of course not being able to set user permissions).
I've tried using server and db roles but haven't been able to determine how to give someone w/o full sa rights access to maintenance plans.
If you can think of soemthing, please let m eknow.

I have MS SQL Server 2000 DB.
I have created a User and created some tables for the same.
I created a Role named A and granted Select Permissions for few tables to that roles.
When I created another Role named B and added this role (A) to B, the permissions are not being xferred to B. Bcos of which, if i assign an User to Role B, he is not able to select the tables for which permissions have been given thru role A.
Note : If i give assign directly the user to Role A, it is working. But i want to assign User to role A only thru B.
Using SQL Server 2k5 sp1, Is there a way to deny users access to a specific column in a table and deny that same column to all stored procedures and views that use that column? I have a password field in a database in which I do not want anyone to have select permissions on (except one user). I denied access in the table itself, however the views still allow for the user to select that password. I know I can go through and set this on a view by view basis, but I am looking for something a little more global.

Does anybody know how to set up a role that can only set up jobs in Sql7.0.
TIA - Philip
I might be missing something. I have 'upsized' an Access database to SQL 7.0. I then created new users on the server. I then added them to the database and gave them the role db_datawriter. When they try to connect, they can't. When I look at the permissions tab for the tables, I see their ID's, but none of the boxes are marked. Did I forget to do something?

I am creating a new user. I would like to give read only access just for the tables in a database. I had assigned only public and db_Datareader roles to this user. With these roles the user could able to see the script of the SPs and also the DTS packages. Also with the above roles the user could able to create new DTS packages and SPs. Is it possible to deny the user to look at the sps and ability to open the DTS packages created by some other users.
What I need to do is create a role with just table data read access so that they could just select the data only nothing more than that.
Also another role with dataread and ability to create the DTS packages from other servers by accessing this data. Anotherthing we need is With this role the users could create Database schema.
This is an urgent request. Please advise me ASAP.
Thanks
Hi,can anybody tell me the script for how to find out for a particular login n for a particular database ,what are the database roles they have??
