MS SQL Server - User Rights
Jul 23, 2005Does anyone know if it possible to make a specific table invisible to a
user when they are in Enterprise Manager?
Does anyone know if it possible to make a specific table invisible to a
user when they are in Enterprise Manager?
What rights do users require to be able to use SQL Server Express?? I receive errors when the user doesn't have full admin rights. Our users cannot have admin rights all the time on their PCs. Errors below:
"Create failed for Database 'TestDatabase'. (microsoft.SqlServer.Express.Smo) Additional information: An exception occurred while executing a Tranact-SQL statement or batch. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Exress.ConnectionInfor) Create Database permission denied in database 'master'. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 262)"
Hi All,
I have a user that should only have the rights to view the jobs and database properties within Enterprise Manager. I am not sure how to do that. Can you please help? Thanks.
Hi,
I am using SSRS 2005.
Created several reports on the server where SSRS is installed.
In addition I managed to develop a few more reports on my work station and then deployed the reports to the server.
From my local machine I can brose to http://servername/reports and view/run the reports.
Now I would like to find out if/how others can view some of the reports. How/where do I set rights...?
Thanks
I'm running into an issue with a user with restricted rights being able to access a local SDF file. The user has Modify right to the folder (and the file), but cannot access the SDF if it was created by someone else.
The only two workarounds I've found are: 1) If the I delete the SDF and then the restricted user creates the SDF they can then access it. 2) If I grant Full Control to the folder then the restricted user can access the database.
Is this by design? Are there programatic changes that can be made to enable access?
All users who login to the box (Windows XP) need to be able to access the same SDF. The SDF is stored on the local machine.
Thanks,rlw...
Hi,
I want to give 'Execute' permission for all the sp to a particular user.
Any straight way of doing this then to go to each sp and give him permission for every sp.
TIA.
Hi All,
How can I give the user view rights only?
I need some advice with a msSQL 2005 databaseI'm creating a administration program in vb.net based on a new msSql db. This programme is involved with customeradmin, facturation, products, sales,...by example: Some employees don't has anything to do with product, so they don't need the rights to delete, create or edit it.The question is how can i resolve this problem, because i don't find any good solution. The rights are for every employee different, and can be changed by a admin panel. The admin can give a employee specific rights for every part of the programmeso how can we give a user certain rights when he is logging in into the program.thanks, BoardD :S ;)

Scenario is a Personal Webpage for my Family & Friends located in my house
- ASP.Net Starter Website: Personal Website

- WEBSITE: changed connection string from local to remote
(local doesn't work, because the LocalSystem User on Win2K, which is
used by the SQLServer, has no User Profile. Also you cannot change the
Service User, so it won't work with the local connection string, but
with an attached and remote accessible DB it works just fine)
- WEBSITE: runs locally and remotely on DEV PC with remote DB's and custom users.
But
I'm concern about the two users I've created, to access the two DB's.
I've no idea, what rights/roles aso they need to use the DB for remote
(for development) and local (for production) access and to be secure?
Thanks for any help, ideas and suggestions.

How can we allow users to access a MS SQL Server OLAP cube but restrict the level of data that he might see?
I mean, if there is a cube with data for three different countries. How can one user be restricted to see data pertaining to
only one of the countries and not the other two countries?
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,

Hi,
How to ennumerate the Rights of an User for all the tables [Select/Insert/Update/Delete] in a database or how to ennumerate/list all the Table rights for a particular user in a database? By User, i mean the Login names [like bill, sam, sa] and not dbowner, public, etc. thanx in advance.
Does anyone have a SP which will output all users and their permissions (dbo), (read), (write) for each database for SQL 2k? I'm trying to find a way to simply automate this so I can output the data on demand for auditors. I'm currently checking each users permissions on each database through security/logins :(
View 3 Replies View RelatedHello everyone,
Does anyone know of a quick way to audit all users in a database and display their rights and permissions on a table level. I would hate to have to do it one user at a time. There has to be an easier way.
I'm going through a Sarbanes Oxley audit and need to provide them this information.
Thanks in advance for help.
Could someone please help me for SWL backup restoration and db by user
I restored SQL 7.0 database to SQL 2000. ( by creating empty db on SQL 2000 and restored from SQL 7 backup) -- restore ok..
I need to use same SQL user which is admin for DB on SQL 7, for SQL 2000 also. ( DB user is sql user not domain user)
I put mixed authentication mode ( windows and SQL) in SQL 2000 enterprises manager security tab setting.
I can see DB user is available in DB user list on restored DB but can not access DB when I try to access from query analyser
I tried to create new login with same name as it was in SQL 7 and tried to give full admin access on SQL 2000 enterprise manager but I get error 21002:[ SQL DMO] User 'user' already exists.
Kind Regards

I have a small SSIS package which:
- drops existing table in Excel,
- creates a new one in Excel,
- copies data from SQL to newly created sheet.
So there are 2 connections: one to a excel file, and second to SQL using sa account. I am working on my account belonging to Administrators group.
SQL Server and Excel file are on my development machine. Everything works ok when I run package from file system using DTExecUI.exe (in context of my user belonging to Administrator group). But when I have created job to execute this package problem with security occured. Even assigning local account on which SQL Server and SQL Server Agent works to Administrator group do not help. I have simulated what can happen when running DTExecUI.exe utility in contex of different user. I have used Administrator (I start it using "Run As..." from context menu in Explorer"). And what occured, SSIS package can not login to SQL Server using sa user!
1. Why running DTExecUI.exe in context of different user impact login to SQL on sa accout? If it were Windows Integrated I could understand it.
2. Especially if the different user is also Administrator!!!
I have found solution for running a task in SQL Agent - SQL Agent has to work on the same account on which SSIS package was created. But this is crazy when I would like to deploy it to a production server.
Please help.

Hi,
I have a problem with sp execution.:
objects of [dbo]
Tables of [nuran]
Grants of [nuran]
[dbo].tabloA
[nuran].tmptabloA
Select,insert, update on [dbo].tabloA
[dbo].tmptabloA
Deny for [dbo].tmptabloA
[dbo].sp_yordam
Grant for executing [dbo].sp_yordam
(1)
create PROCEDURE [dbo].[SP_yordam]
AS
BEGIN
BEGIN TRANSACTION @Tran1
¦¦¦¦¦. ¦¦¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦.
INSERT INTO [tabloA]
(, ,)
SELECT ,,
FROM [tmptabloA] WHERE ......
¦¦¦ ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦.
DELETE FROM [tmptabloA]
COMMIT TRANSACTION @Tran1
When user [nuran] execute the procedure sp_yordam by a VB program, the procedure use [dbo].tmptabloA not [nuran].[tmptaboA]. If there are data in the [dbo].tmptabloA, the procedure insert data to [dbo].tabloA from [dbo].tmptabloA. But when I checked user name in the procedure during execution, the user was [nuran].
If I write the procedure like that:
(2)
create PROCEDURE [dbo].[SP_tmpSil]
AS
declare @tablo1 as varchar(50),
DECLARE @sil as nvarchar(max)
select @tablo1='[tmptabloA]'
SELECT @sil = ' DELETE FROM ' + @tablo1 + ';'
EXEC (@sil)
END
And it executed by user [nuran],then it used the correct table [nuran].tmptabloA
Is there any way to use users table in an stored procedure without using the user name :
(3)
create PROCEDURE [dbo].[SP_yordam]
AS
BEGIN
BEGIN TRANSACTION @Tran1
¦¦¦¦¦. ¦¦¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦.
INSERT INTO [tabloA]
(, ,)
SELECT ,,
FROM [nuran].[tmptabloA] WHERE ......
¦¦¦ ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦.
DELETE FROM [nuran].[tmptabloA]
COMMIT TRANSACTION @Tran1
I don't want to use (2) and (3) code methods, I prefer to use (1) script. Is there any compilation method, or any aditional way for using script (1) with correct user rights?
Thanks a lot

Hi:
When I restore DB from testing to production, we want to remove extra access rights granted to public group. Is there a simple way to query to find out for which objects (table, view, sp, fn) that public group were granted select, delete, update insert, or execute rights?
My objective is to write a sp to remove all user assigned rights to public group (role), but not to deny any rights. How to do it?
Any suggestion will be appreciated.
What's best practice (security wise) in granting a user access right to edit say the description of a job.
View 2 Replies View RelatedTo use Reporting Services as a rendering engine I want to configure a local user on the server that has only the minimum set of permissions and user rights. The server is W2K3 SP2 and SQL 9.0.3200.
In particular, this local user has been removed from the local "Users" group and so is the "Authenticated Users" built-in group. In Reporting Services, it is mapped to a role that only has the "Execute Report Definitions" task permission.
Then, following the details in http://support.microsoft.com/kb/812614/ (Default permissions and user rights for IIS 6.0) I added all file security and local user rights required for "Users" and also granted and propagated "Read&Execute" on the "Reporting Services" folder and verified this using "Effective Permissions" on the ReportService2005.asmx file.
However, I still get 401 Unauthorized, also after a complete restart of all related machines and services.
Once I add the user or "Authenticated Users" back to "Users" everything works fine.
What permissions might I be missing? Where could I find those permission requirements documented?
I tried analyzing the 401 using auditing file and object access security but to no avail. There are no Failure audit entries in the Security log.
How can I investigate the minimum permission set?
What is the risk of leaving the user in the "Users" local group?
Any help appreciated.
We have a SQL server with many legacy DTS packages. sa and Admins can open them and change them then save them but we need to allow the DTS people (Developers) the rights to save the package after they have opened it and modified it.

I'm trying to install SQL Server 2005 Express on a Windows 2000 server, but I'm getting the following error message:
"Failure setting security rights on user account SQLServer2005BrowserUser${computerName}"
Can anyone help me please?
I am facing a problem which is based on the restrictions on the domain of the customer. After deplyoing the report on the server we are getting the following error message in the report manager after executing (clicking) a report link:
Logon failed.
Logon failure: the user has not been granted the requested logon type at this computer. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070569)
I googled for that and it seems to be an authentication issue where some user / account is not granted to log on as service / locally, but the problems is better described than the solutions. Did anyone faced that problem so far ? Which account has to be granted what priviledges or permissions in Windows. We are using a SQL Server 2005 / Reporting Services 2005 running on the same machine whereas the virtual directories Reports and Reportserver are running in a separate Application Pool

Dear all,
Basically I want to set chain up the rights so that the anonymous web user IUSR_ .. can execute the new .NET subs, functions etc in the assembly, just as the anonymous web user can execute Stored Procedures when granted. In this way, it should be possible to call the .NET assembly just as classic stored procedures from ASP/ASP.NET.
I have written a .NET function which I can successfully execute if I log on to the database as an administrator by sending this T-SQL query; it returns the result of a given string:
select dbo.CLRHTMLString('abc')
The scenario is now to try to grant access to this assembly for a different role (webuser), which the classic IUSR_MYSERVERNAME is a login of, so that I can call the .NET Assembly when I am authenticated as the anonymous web user (e.g. via ASP, etc.).
To test access, I created a login (webusertest) for a user (webusertest) in the same role (webuser) on the database. But when I use this login, which supposedly has the same rights as the IUSR_, execution right is denied:
EXECUTE permission denied on object 'CLRHTMLString', database 'adt_db', schema 'dbo'.
Note: The 'webuser' database role has Execute permission on the Assembly.
I have also tested this from my actual web page, with the following results:
(1) IUSR_MYSERVER member of db_owner role: Web page has right to call assembly.
(2) IUSR_MYSERVER not member of db_owner role: Web page does not have right to call assembly.
Further test results:
(3) Function can be called when making the user "webusertest" member of the "db_owner" role, which is too much rights to grant for the anonymous web user.
(4) When adding the user 'webusertest' to get 'Execute' permissions on the assembly, it does not get added. After clicking OK, there is no warning message, but when opening the Assembly Properties -> Permission dialog box the same time, the 'webusertest' user does not appear in the list.
Thankful for any advice on this matter.
The DBA at our location is demanding local admin (windows) right's to the box so he can function. Right now when he logs in i have given him right's to the inetpub directory, sql directory, i have set him as a sysadmin on sql2005 and gone into the http:\localhost
eports and set him up as a system manager and under site priveledges set him as a sys admin. When he tries to login and configure the report server he gets the following error:
Title-Reporting services configuration manager
Error-There was an error refreshing the UI. bla bla bla
A WMI error has occurred and no additional error information is availiable
Title-Reporting services configuration manager
Error-There was an error while switching panels. The most likely cause is an error retrieving WMI properties. bla bla bla
A WMI error has occurred and no additional error information is availiable
then when he's in sql server 2005 surface area configuation
Title-Surface Area Configuration
Error-Access denied (system.management)
Is there any documentation or anythign anyone can tell me that i can do to give this DBA full access to configure and admin the SQL portion of his system without giving him admin rights to the OS???

Everything is working fine on my local computer but when i published the web site on a remote computer i get the error "Failed to generate a user instance of SQL Server due to failure in retrieving the user's local application data path.

I am having trouble openning a connection to a sql server database that resides on another machine. When the web server and SQL server run on the same machine, everything works fine. When the web server and sql server are located on different machines, I get an access rights error when i try to open the connection. I suspect that this involves trust levels, but all the tweaking I have done has not resolved this issue. Any help would be much appreciated!

I have a web server and database server which are not on a domain. Theweb server has an app that is running on under the IUSR account andthere is a corresponding IUSR account on the database server. The webapp connects to the SQL server with the windows authentication andeverything works fine.I also have a stored proc which does a file search using a linkedserver to an index server on the very same web server. For now assumethat cannot change, the files must be on the web server (TRA is themachine name). When attempting to execute the following query from thedatabase server, doing a RunAs on the SQL 2005 Management studio as theIUSR account from the database server, everything works fine:SELECTQ.*FROMOPENQUERY(FTIndexPM, 'SELECT path, characterization, rank, hitcountFROM TRA.CatalogTest..SCOPE(''DEEP TRAVERSAL OF "C:ProgramFilesdir1FilesProject757DocMgmt"'') WHERE CONTAINS(''"test"'') > 0OR FileName LIKE ''%test%'' ORDER BY rank DESC') AS QThe IUSR_TRA account is an administrator on both the database and webserver for debugging reasons until we figure this out, but clearly itshouldn't be a rights issue if both users are administrators on bothmachines.Now for the tricky, part. When the same query as above is executed fromthe web server, it fails with the the below error:OLE DB provider "MSIDXS" for linked server "FTIndexPM" returned message"Invalid catalog name 'CatalogTest'. SQLSTATE=42000 ".Using SQL Profiler, I have verified that both queries are actuallyrunning under the IUSR_TRA account. Any ideas why the exact same queryrunning under the exact same NT login would behave differently whenexecuted from a web app as opposed to through a clinet request from aweb app?

The company I work for outsources all its non-development IT. So all windows servers are administered by an outside company. Lately we have purchased SQL Server 2005, along with a dedicated Windows Server 2003 server. I am the sole administrator of this SQL Server, and so have sysadmin rights. However because the outside company is responsible for all windows servers, they are very reluctant to grant me local administrator rights on the server. This has been causing problems, partly because I have to go through them for many simple requests (such as moving database files, or changing SQL Server configuration files), and partly because certain functionality doesn't seem to work for non-administrators (such as the use of Database Mail and full access to Reporting Services).
I want to challenge the decision and gain local admin rights to the server. Would anyone have further reasons why a sysadmin should also have local admin rights? Is this common practice, or are sysadmins often denied admin access to the server?
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Thanks, Matt
Do DBAs need OS Administrator rights to Manage SQL Server? I suspect the answer is no, but, the DBAs tell me that they cannot do their jobs without OS admin rights.
Can someone point me to documentation detailing what OS level rights are needed by SQL Server DBAs?
