I have connected my desktop and laptop computer at home, on my desktop I have a series of db's under my default named instance <computername>/sqlexpress and I have created access logins using windows auth. When I connect to the desktop from the laptop using tcp:<computername>sqlexpressuserid I can only see the system db's...I am trying to view adventure works, which I can see on the desktop fine using the same login...any ideas?
I'm very new to this so excuse my naiveity...I have connected my desktop and laptop computer at home, on my desktop I have a series of db's under my default named instance <computername>/sqlexpress and I have created access logins using windows auth. When I connect to the desktop from the laptop using tcp:<computername>sqlexpressuserid I can only see the systemdb's...I am trying to view adventure works, just to see how this remote connection stuff works...any ideas?
I am trying to use a linked server and it works as long as I do not specify the sp_addlinkedserver @provstr parameter. If I specify that parameter I always get a 7416 "Access to the remote server is denied because no login-mapping exists" error. I have tried adding the logins various ways but it's very specific to the @provstr parameter, and it doesn't even matter what I put in that parameter. As soon as I put something in there whether it is valid or invalid, I get the error.
Anyone else seen this? There is an amazing lack of any discussion about the error when I search for it.
It doesn't even make any difference what I put in the @provstr parameter - the sp_addlinkedserver statement always executes without an error, but running a query that uses the linked server generates the error.
I created a login in SQL Server 2005 for SQL Server Reporting Service training purpose. It seemed the login exceed the connection limit. There were 9 people in the training and some people got the connection errors. Sometimes the connection error went away after the user re-established the connection. Is there a default limit per login? If so, what is the default? Can I change it to unlimited? And how?

Hiya - this might be a bit of a simple question but please bear with me! I have looked reasonably hard for this but can not find an answer:
I have an MSSQL 2000 server running on PC-A and would like to limit certain users (e.g. admin) to be only able to logon when using the actual PC-A machine.
I am aware that you can acheive this in MySQL with the "insert into user (host, user, password) values (localhost, username, password);" command. Is there an equivalent way to do this in MSSQL?
I'm using a legacy application built using VB5 and SQL Server 7. After recompiling it, and putting the database in SQL Server 2012. I want to access the current login user using the SQL function SUSER_SNAME().
This is the code.
Set rdoRes = goDatabase.Connection.OpenResultset("select suser_sname()")
But I'm unable to get the current user login in the application. If I write any other SQL statement instead of this, then it runs. But only this statement is not running. Is there any security reasons for this?
Hi I am using sql express to automatically generate users and logins from t-sql. I seem to be having a problem when it comes to restricting their access though. I only want them to be able to select on views and execute stored procedures. at the moment I have created a new database role, schema, login, and user, then added the user to the role but how do I restrict access to the above areas? do the restrictions go on the role, schema, or user? I must confess I find the whole schema and role issue a little confusing and just when I think I've got it, it turns out I haven't :( thanks
I'm assisting in the creation of a development enviroment with SQL Server 2005, and I need to assign some custom roles, in particular, a Stored Developer Role should be able to create, modify and execute Stored Procedures but they should not be able to alter tables or views, but should be able to retrieve/insert data from those tables.
I've tried with the default roles in 2005 to no avail.
Is there a relatively easy way to accomplish this with a database alredy populated with objects of both kinds? (SP's and Tables / Views)
- When I disable "allow remote connections to this server" from server properties>connection page, I can still remotely connect to the server from SSMS...so what is the impact of enable/disabling it?
- what is the impact of changing the remote query timeout (on the same page) from default value?
I just want to find out what the difference between a remote login and a remote query is. I'd have thought that a remote query inherently requires a remote login.
I have messed around with some remote login stuff and really screwed things up, now all of my jobs that execute prcedures on the remote server all fail saying the login failed for user 'sa'.
I need to get this working again and could really do with some help.
Hi, I have installed SQL Server 2005 and Visual Studio 2005 in my machine. I got an error when I tried an example.

I installed MSDE at my server at home, and that works fine. On the server I can access my MSDE perfectly. But, from a remote computer it seems impossible to connect.
Some (maybe) important information:
To create a user at my msde I used:
sp_addlogin (@ the MASTER DB) sp_adduser (@ My DB) sp_addrolemember (@ My DB)
Then I runned SVRNETCN.exe and enabled TCP/IP.
btw: I don't have a firewall running and both computers are on the same local network.

Hello guys and girls! I need help for this error. Could anyone be so kind to enlighten me on this? Thanks! When i attempted to login to my local page, this occurred:
I'm about googled out on this one. I did find one post that looked almost like mine but the thread was never finished. I'm sure this problem has been solved and I'm just having trouble finding it. Can someone help me?
I'm running sql server 2000 on a small workgroup network of winxp machines.
If sql server machine is the same as webserver machine, my asp.net app works. If sql server and webserver are different, the app fails because of sql server login failure.
I am able to explore the database remotely through server explorer in VStudio2003. However, when I try to access the database with the asp.net application, the login fails. I have tried several connection strings. Authentication on the server is 'mixed', the server runs in the system account, and the password for sa is "" (blank password).
When "machinename" is the same as the machine on which the app is running. both of those connection strings work, and the application runs correctly.
When "machinename" is different (that is, sql server on a different machine from the webserver), depending on the connection string I get either "Login failed for user 'sa'." or "Login failed for user '(null)'. Reason: Not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection."
Obviously VStudio is using some mechanism to add the remote server to it's list of servers and then to allow me manually to explore the databases on that server. Why am I too stoopid to figure it out?
I am trying to use a confirmed and valid account over a WAN (US to Europe) to register and access a SQL server database. The protocol being used is TCP/IP and it has been confirmed that port 1433 is open.
The data is going through a frame relay line and pining the remote SQL Server does return a valid response. Unfortunately, I am getting the following error:
Error 18456 Severity Level 14 Message Text Login failed for user 'TestUser'.
Explanation You do not have permission to log in to the server.
Action Contact a member of the sysadmin fixed server role to request login permission.
I moved my web and DB to a new server. I am trying to use a private network between my servers to connect to my DB.
I backed up my DB on the old server, copied it to my new server, then restored it.
I then went into Security > Login and set up a User Name & Password and set the db as the default db, made that user the owner, etc.
I went to my web server, changed my connection string to this:
Code:
sConString = "Driver={SQL Server};" & _ "Server=tcp:MYSERVERNAME;" & _ <!-- The server name --> "Address=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx,1433;" & _ <!-- The Private IP Address between servers --> "Network=DBMSSOCN;" & _ <!-- Telling it to use TCP --> "Database=DBNAME;" & _ <!-- The name of the DB I am connecting to --> "Uid=UNAME;" & _ <!-- The user name to login with --> "Pwd=UPWD;" <!-- The Users Password -->
(Obviously I changed the critical info above, but this is the format I used)
I cannot seem to login to the DB. I get the following error:
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80040e4d'
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Login failed for user 'UNAME'.
/(file path), line 5
I have read the following article and it appears I have everything right. http://support.microsoft.com/?scid=kb;en-us;827422&spid=2852&sid=332
Somehow I cannot seem to connect/login to get the proper access. Can anyone help? Anyone see anything I am doing wrong? Anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks for the help in advance. I am trying to get this done tonight so it is running in time for the morning.
My question is, is it possible to connect to an SQL database using the MSDE 2000 SP3a edition over the internet? And if so, how do I set it up? Thank you in advance.
I have 2 xp machines one has the SQL EXPRESS Server with all the goodies on it and the other I just install the client stuff. I am using VB 6 to program with using the ADO. It works great on the server machine. The software pulls up great. I can't seem to get it to work on the client machine. I get "Login failed for user 'TIGGERLGuest'. I found the places to set the TCPIP setings on the server SQL Express to allow this even turned on the browser but nothing same error. I am using the same login on both machines and am pointed to the same workgroup. I used window authentication when I set them up. Not sure why it insists on using Guest.
This is a copy of the connection string I am using
Hi, I have an ASP.Net web application running in groupnamewebservername. I am trying to connect it to the remote database server groupnamedatabaseservername using the ASPNET user id. The remote database is SQL Server 2005 and the web server has IIS 6.0 installed. My web.config connection entry has username as "groupnamewebservernameaspnet" and I have a database user in remote database server under the login name groupnamewebservername$. When I try to connect, I keep getting the following error: System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Login failed for user 'groupnamewebservernameaspnet'.
Could you please let me know what I am doing wrong here? Thanks. Regards, Gayathri.

I followed the steps outlined in a blog I found to setup SS2005 express for remote connections. Everything appeared to go smooth until I actually tried to logon ;)
I have Sql Server 2005 Express installed on my WinXP PRO machine at home (no domain). I have opened the ports on the firewall, etc.
When I try and login from the SQLCMD command line tool I get a Login Failed error. Here is the connection string that I'm trying to use: SQLCMD -S **.***.**.*SQLEXPRESS -U Steve -P MyPassword
The error: Login failed for user 'Steve'.
When I use Management Studio Express on the same machine running Sql Server, it shows the User name: NEVERSTILLSteve
'NEVERSTILL' is the name of my computer.
If I try and use that same username with a remote connection I get the same error.
I have googled for the error and msg code, but nothing fitting my situation is coming up.
I have installed a SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition instance with SSIS on Window Server 2003 x64. From my PC, I am able to connect to the Integration Services on the server using Windows Authentication but not with a local SQL login - and the option to change authentication methods is greyed out.
Is it possible to remotely connect to SSIS using a SQL login rather than a Windows login? If so, any ideas or references for configuring it as such?
When i give PortalUser a sysadmin server role, it works. But i don't want to give PortalUser a sysadmin role. Any suggestions? Is sysadmin role required to access a remote server using Sql server authentication?
Hi I have a web application and SQL database on separate SQL 2000 server. I have no admin rights to these servers.The ISP gave me a VPN connection and password to manager my database.If i run the application from my home computer WITH the VPN connected the application works fine.However if i disconnect the VPN or try to run the application from the remote server i get this error:SQL Server does not exist or access deniedI have researched this problem extensively and CANNOT find a solution. The application and SQL 2000 database server are on different computers. The SQL user id and password are different from the VPN connection's.My web config looks like this:<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <configuration> <appSettings> <add key="mappedname" value="username"/> <add key="mappedkey" value="password"/> </appSettings> <system.web> <globalization fileEncoding="utf-8" requestEncoding="utf-8" responseEncoding="utf-8" /> </system.web> </configuration> And the application connection string is as follows:Dim usersql As String = System.Configuration.ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings("mappedname") Dim passsql As String = System.Configuration.ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings("mappedkey") connectionString = "data source=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx;initial catalog=databasename;" connectionString &= ";user id=" & usersql connectionString &= ";password=" & passsql I am obviously missing something. Not sure what or how to pass the permissions on properly.Can some kind soul please help me with this problemThank YouJeff
