Moving Database Roles
Nov 12, 2001
On 11/10/01 I posted a question on how to move passwords from one sql2000 box to another. The response to this question worked perfectly.
I also need to copy over the user or database access information from one box to another. I tried to use dts but it only copied over the users and the database roles but did not copy over the Database user properties which allows the user access and places the user into security groups.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks again.

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...

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?

What are the differences between the database permissions, which can be granted in the database properties permissions tab (create table, create procedure etc.) and the predefined role db_ddladmin? It seems that the database properties permissions tab includes more permissions than the predefined role db_ddladmin.
Does anybody know the difference in terms of permission?

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.

I am not sure if this is the right place for this question or not but here it goes...
I want to add a new user to the database with read-only rights. I know public is selected by default and can not be changed. I also added the user to db_datareader and db_denydatawriter. But just as I was about to save I noticed Read Only. I have done some searching but have not found anything about this role. I assume it does just what it says but I am confused as to why it would be there when I can set the other settings I just did. Is there any benefit to using this role instead of the ones I chose? Should I add this role in addition to the two I have already picked? Any help is greatly appreciated.
thank you,
Kevin

After "copying" a SQL Srv DB from one server to the next, we have found that the permissions within the developer-created database roles did not transfer. How can we insert these permissions without doing it manually? Or can we create some type of DTS package that will bring the roles' permissions for us? Or how do you move a SQL database from one server to the next and get everything within it to come along??

I have been doing maintenance on my sql server 7 databases, I have removed some users from the server login area for example user "EMS". I noticed that "EMS" is still in the 'public database role' for my database. How do I remove old unwanted members out the public database role? Are they perminantly stored there? Is there a way to clean them up?
Does anyone know why users would notbe listed while adding them to roles?

I'm looking for advice/caveats about how to convert/export information on AS database / cube roles. The reason why is because we have to move the server into different windows domain and all the roles reference windows accounts in the old domain. Using the MS SQL 2000 version.
Thanks in advance.

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,
nu_dba

I have an application that segregates data into two differentdatabases. Database A has stored procs that perform joins betweentables in database A and database B. I am thinking that I have reachedthe limits of Application Roles, but correct me if I am wrong.My application creates a connection to database A as 'testuser' withread only access, then executes sp_setapprole to gain read writepermissions. Even then the only way 'testuser' can get data out of thedatabases is via stored procs or views, no access to tables directly.Anyone know of a solution? Here is the error I get:Server: Msg 916, Level 14, State 1, Procedure pr_GetLocationInfo, Line38Server user 'testuser' is not a valid user in database 'DatabaseB'The system user is in fact in database A and B.thanksJason Schaitel

We maintain a few applications that query multiple databases on our server. We also have groups of users that multitask using different applications.
I've always created a Role in each database for every application.
Wondering if someone is in two Roles at once will we have security conflicts?

I have searched hi and low for hours within the product and online - I cannot find how to have SQL 2005 produce a script to automatically repeat the creation of a database role I have tedious manually created.
I have tried "script object as, create to,<>" - single-liners are produced - no details. More single line results from "<Database>, All Tasks, Generate Scripts".
Am I missing something or is this a bug?
€¦also to note after review blogs and other sources the use of the SQL2005 methods related to security and new schema objects - I feel€¦ dreadfully wrong - what is claimed feels like hype, unsupported by examples and usage cases feels like we better just make all automated processes sysadmin; I know learning curves can be strong but I am not this green or that stupid - where are the DOCS/training materials?

I am not sure why this is not working it clearly states in the MSDN that it should "
'role'
Is the name of the SQL Server role being checked. role is sysname and can include the database fixed roles or user-defined roles but not server roles.
"
I have seen many questions revolving around this issue on this site and on the net about this but know one can answer it
I have created a new user defined database role called testrole with any owner
then created a new sql login and user (Sql Authentication)
add the user to the database role testrole
check IS_MEMBER and it returns 0
try this with a fixed database role and I get the desired result of 1
this is simple and should not be such a problem for every one
unless I am doing something wrong
Please help
Thanks

As 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!

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.

Hi
I want to transfer a database from one PC to another. (Both running SQL Server 2005 express)
I have copied the files (SQL Server Database Primary Data File and SQL Server Database Transaction Log File) from the C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLData folder of the source PC to the destination PC (Same folder).
I was under the impression that using Microsoft SQL Server 2005 - SQL Server Management Studio Express these files would be picked up and could be used, do I infact need to do something to attach the files/database so that they will appear in SQL Server management?

I have two computers, both with SQL Express 2005 and SQL Server Management Studio Express. I created a database on one computer, and need to copy it to the other computer. I'd like to do it all through the Management Studio interface, without using SQL commands, since I only need to do this manually.
I detached the two files, copied them to the second computer, and tried to attach them. This is generating lots of messages about not having the necessary permissions of various sorts. I think the main problem is that I don't know how to set up the database's users in a way that allows the second computer to attach the database.
I've tried Windows authentication, using a Windows user that has the same name and password on both computers, and I've defined that Windows user as a user within the database. I've connected to SQL when logged in as that user.
I've tried SQL authentication also, defining the same SQL user within both SQL Servers, as db_owner. But when I try to attach the database, I see no place to specify the user that I intend it to use, and it still fails. If I connect to SQL as that user, then SQL doesn't have permission to look at the file system to find the MDF file.
I'd appreciate the help in learning how to do this with both Windows authentication and SQL authentication, via the Management Studio's GUI. Most of the documentation I've seen covers how to do it by using SQL language commands, and I'd like to avoid that.

Hi all,
I have an Ms Access table and a MsSql table. I am running a windows service in my localhost where the data from Ms access table will be copied to Ms sql table for every one minute. Before copying the data, the Ms sql table will be flushed inorder to avoid replicates.
Now i want to copy only the latest records updated within 1 min in Ms access table, to Ms sql table.
My Ms access table
Name Id
jas 100
meena 101
viji 102
My Ms sql table
Name Id
jas 100
meena 101
viji 102
After 1 min, say 2 records are added to my Ms access table like,
Name Id
jas 100
meena 101
viji 102
bhuvana 103
pinky 104
Now i want to insert only the latest records from Ms access to Ms sql like,
