Hi all,
Suppose I have a SQL database table called Customer Info which contains six fields namely Customer ID, Address, First , Last Name , Password, and Time Remaining. The Time Remaining field contains the amount of time that a customer has before his or her password expires. I would like info in this field to be in hours and minutes and when it reaches zero, I would like the password to be deleted from the database. So I have two questions and please take into consideration that I am using dot net 2.0.
1) Can this be done without having to write a custom function?
2) If this can only be done by creating a custom function, how would I get the function to communicate with the database, in other words how would I let the function know that a customer's time is up?
Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated, thank you in advance for your help.
How can you force a password, from a sql login, to expire?
I would like to use the password expiration feature for sql logins in SqlServer 2005. The msdn document provides example code for SqlClient SqlConnection.ChangePassword like in Bob Beauchemin's book. http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.data.sqlclient.sqlconnection.changepassword.aspx
There is a modify_date in the system view sys.sql_logins but that is read-only.
Is there a way to set up automated email notification beginning 14 days prior to when a SQL Server Login password (that has "Enforce password expiration" enabled) will expire?
The problem I am facing is related to dynamic configuration of package one of the package connection is DB2 connection, I tried to set the expression connection string for that connection to the variable which contains the connection string to the DB2 but when I set connection the String property then i get the error message in transformation that password is missing, I dont want to write password in connection String for security reasons so I tried to save password in connection which is not helpful I am getting the same error message package security setting I changed to "Encrypt Sensitive Data with User Key" , anywayout to overcome this problem?
Hi, SELECT UserID, UserName, Password, PublisherID, CurrencyFROM [User]WHERE (Password = 'Anitha') I am using the above mentioned it is working but int the password field i had given it as anitha. Now the querry is retriving the record for anitha, it shouldnot happen. The querry should retrive the record of anitha only for where condition anitha and not for Anitha or ANITHA etc.. Thanks Vishwanath
I have a maintenance plan setup to expire backup sets after 4 days, but its keep backup copies for an infinite amount of time. I might be misunderstanding whats suppose to happen, but I would expect the files to be removed after 4 days.
My application is developed using VB6.0 and SQL Server 2000. Frequently the application displays error message, which says 'Timeout Expired - occurred while getting records" when no. of users grows more than 20. We are using processor based licence SQL Server. Under what are all the scenario, this error may come? Anybody explain me. Thanks in advance. K.Manoharan
This question is related to VSTS and above parameters in the request. Question is:
A script created with VSTS for testers has hard coded values for ReportSession and ControlID in the requests, These IDs are expired after some time and scripts fails to run after few hours. Can some one tell me how to set the session expiration time on these ID's in the Report server so I can increase the value to 60*24*365 (1 year) this would solve my problem with hard coded values in the scripts for above mentioned IDs.
I have a design question that I was hoping you all can help with.
When I normally design a table I always make sure to include a status field. This way I can "delete" a record without actually having to delete it, just update the record to a status which signifies deleted. This ensures my users have an undelete capability as well as safesguarding against the "mad clickers" which click right through the "You are deleting this record..." alerts.
I have been recently adding tables which have temporary records and are meant to expire at a certain date. I have designed these tables to have an expiration date field AND a status field.
My question is this: What is the normal convention relating to these types of records/tables? Should queries using these types of tables query them using the status AND the expiration date? Should you create a job that updates the records status based on the expiration date being passed. Should you use a view that only displays current records based on expiration date?
I just want to make sure Im following standard practice as I design these types of tables.
I have a question regarding notification of password expirations.
Background: My workplace will soon be enforcing the password policy and password expiration facilities in SQL Server 2005. My understanding (and correct me if I am wrong) is that the period of validity for a password before expiration occurs comes from either active directory, or where there is no AD, the local machine security policy.
Because we are on a Novell network our SQL2K5 servers are all mixed authentication. For development purposes we are each given a separate account. Our applications, too, use sql accounts (not windows accounts) for database access. Having a development account expire unexpectedly is no problem; we'll change those passwords as they need to be. What I am concerned with is the accounts our applications use to access the database server; like most IT shops, our applications need to be available with interruptions in service as minimal as possible.
I would like to create and schedule a report to run every morning listing those accounts that are about to expire, or have expired, so that those passwords can be changed with little to no interruption in service.
Question: Where do I pull this data from? I couldn't find anything in the BOL, or online (so far), giving the details of how to determine when a particular account is nearing expiration, or has expired.
I would appreciate any advice anyone has to offer.
I have connected to Database using my credentials by checking remember password option. After few days I forgot my password. How can I recover the password as SQL remember it. Is there any way to recover my password instead of resetting it.
I have a package protected by a password - I am already unhappy that to get it to use the configuration file to change connection strings for the production servers I have had to hardcode the password into the config file - very insecure! However, the package now deploys correctly to the production server and will run from there OK, but NOT if scheduled as a SQL Server Agent Job. Thus is because however often I edit the command line to include the password after the DECRYPT switch (which it has prompted me for when I click on the command line tab), the Job Step will not retain it. If I open it up after I have edited it and closed it, the password has disappeared.
I know that if I run dtexec plus the code in the Command Line tab (with the password), the package runs OK.
This is driving me insane! I have read all the other posts and so I tried replacing the SSIS package step with a CmdExec step and pasting that code into there - then I get an OLEDB error..
The code I use is: DTEXEC /SQL "ImportRateMonitoringTables" /SERVER servername /DECRYPT password /CONFIGFILE "D:Microsoft SQL ServerSSISDeploymentsRateMonitoringImportTasksDeploymentImportRateMonitoringTables_Production.dtsConfig" /MAXCONCURRENT " -1 " /CHECKPOINTING OFF /REPORTING E
and I get
SSIS Error Code DTS_E_OLEDBERROR. An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x8000FFFF
although the same code executes perfectly from a command prompt.
Please does anyone have any experience with a similar problem and if so, how did you get round it?
I am receiving the following error message when attempting to create a new SQL Authenticated login id.
Password validation failed. The password does not meet the requirements of the password filter DLL. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 15119)
I have four servers all running SQL Server 2005 SP2 on Windows 2003 Ent. SP1. Of the four servers, only one received the above error message using the same TSQL below.
CREATE LOGIN TEST_LOGIN WITH PASSWORD = 'pvif9dal' MUST_CHANGE, CHECK_EXPIRATION = ON
All four servers are in the same domain, which if I understand correctly, the password policies are therefore inherited at the OS level by the domain. The password being used is within the password policies of the domain.
I tried to install an ALLDATA database which run with SQL Server 2005 express edition. The data base fails to install becase of the following code that come up which is related to AS password requirement. The error that come up is:

I am trying to install this database in a network server operating under Windows Server 2003 R2 with SP2. If anyone knows how to solve this problem, please let me.
On the login prompt for Report Server, there is a checkbox option to "Remember my Password." I check this, login successfully... but when returning to the Report Server, I am again prompted for the password, although the user name is saved. No matter how many times I do this, the password will not save in IE7. I have tried this on 3 different computers with IE7. In IE 6, I do not even get the checkbox as an option, just the user name/password prompt. In Firefox, the password saves fine. Any ideas what would be causing this?
I have an internal Project Management and Scheduling app that I wrote internally for my company. It was written to use MySQL running on a Debian server, but I am going to move it to SQL Server 2000 and integrate it with our Accounting software. The part I am having trouble with is the user login portion. I previously used this:
PHP Code:
$sql = "SELECT * FROM users WHERE username = "$username" AND user_password = password("$password")";
Apparently the password() function is not available when accessing SQL Server via ODBC. Is there an equivalent function I could use isntead so the passwords arent plaintext in the database? I only have 15 people using the system so a blank pwd reset wouldn't be too much trouble.
Can somebody help me convert this SQL2000 Function TO C# Function pleaseCREATE Function dbo.CalculateNextRentDate ( @Rent_Payment_Date datetime, @Frequency varchar(50) , @Number int)RETURNS DATETIMEASbeginDECLARE @NextPaymentDate DatetimeSET @Number = @Number - 1.IF @Frequency = 'month' IF @rent_payment_date = dateadd(month, datediff(month, 0+@Number, @rent_payment_date) + 1, -1) BEGIN SET @NextPaymentDate = dateadd(month, datediff(month, 0, @rent_payment_date) + 2, -1) END ELSE BEGIN SET @NextPaymentDate = dateadd(month, 1+@Number, @rent_payment_date) END return @NextPaymentDateend
Our company has its Departments And Services. Now We are making it online. Both have separate email list, phone numbers, and more. Will I make one table and adds the field Type (Values: D or S). Or make them separate. Remember one thing If we merge them then Email And PhoneNumber Table will also me merge other wise they will also separate. What is better.

Can anyone tell me how I would go about making my SQL server accessable from the Internet, or know of any good tutorials to get me started, I haven't had much luck looking on google.
I need to access an SQL database from one server on another server for a web application.
Hi guys, I have a car_race table which has these fields
car_id int race_id int b_car_won varchar // can have 'y' or 'n'
I need to know if the car lost the 1st race but won the next race
And example of that table for car_id 1:
car_id 1 race_id 1 b_car_won 'NO'
car_id 1 race_id 2 b_car_won 'YES'
Now this is the tricky part, the database has some data integrity issues, so this can occur:
car_id 1 race_id 1 b_car_won 'NO'
car_id 1 race_id 3 b_car_won 'YES'
So I cant used a fixed race_id value, need to use the race_id > 1 to know whats the next race. But this raises another issue if I have this in the database:
car_id 1 race_id 1 b_car_won 'NO'
car_id 1 race_id 3 b_car_won 'YES'
car_id 1 race_id 4 b_car_won 'YES'
If I query I'd get 2 rows where race_id > 1. And I only need the first one, because 3 is the next race.
I need to fetch in a single row if possible, the result of the 1st race and the 2nd race. How can I do this?
