Moving Logins
Jun 21, 2004What is the best procedure to move database logins between servers ?
DTS logins over? Should i move the logins first then the user databases or is it the other way around ?

Moving DBs From SQL Server Logins To Windows Logins
Apr 3, 2007I am a systems analyst and work with an app that runs against 2 SQL Server DBs. Though I have some familiarity with SQL Server and SQL, I am not a DBA.
The app executable is tied to a Windows service.
When we install the app, we run a process that builds 2 dbs to include:
Tables, indexes, stored procedures, views and user accounts.
SQL Server is set up for mixed mode authentication.
Normally, the dbs run off the local db user accounts which are tied to local logins with the same names.
We have a client that wants to remove our standard logins so that they can run on only a Windows login.
I know I should be able to tie the db users to a Windows login.
And I can do the same for the service.
But I am at a loss as to how to get this done.
How do you associate db users with a Windows login?
When I have tried sp_change_users_login I get an error that the Windows login does not exist. (Though I have added the Windows account to the DB.)
Hope this all makes sense.
Moving Logins
Jun 19, 2001I am trying to move users from a SQL 6.5 database to a SQL 2000 database and would like to keep their passwords intact. We used to move them from 6.5 to 6.5 by bcping in the passwords from master..syslogins into a temp table and then inserting them into the new server. SQL 2000 won't allow us to do that. Does anyone konw another way or know how to make this method work?

Moving Logins To A Different Group?
Aug 30, 1999Hello:
On one of our development ,and production, databases, I have been, through Enterprise Manager for Mssql 6.5,
uisng the managerlogin facility to map each login toa specific group for a specfic database via right clickin on the
group for the login and changing it. This s being doe for moving a login for public to a read-only group.
I have done this for about 40 users. Users are being added quite often now. This is obviously a labor-intensive
and time-consuming manner of doing things.
!) Does any one have a script to change the associaed group for each login in a particular database?
If not, how could I built a script from the system tables?
2) Does any one have a script which would tell me, and generate output on, which users have which permissions
on the tables in a database and what group are they associated with?
Thanks. Any information you can provide will be greatly appreciated.

Moving Logins And Passwords
Nov 18, 1998Does anyone have a script or tip on how to move passwords associated with logins. I am consolidating two 6.5s into one and want to maintain the passwords associated with the logins. Any hints?

I am creating a new sql server 2000 machine and was wondering how to get the users and passwords from the sql6.5 box over onto the new machine. I know for sql 6.5 there is a stored proc sp_TransferPasswords that I have used but it will not script over cleanly to the sql 2000 box.

Moving Logins From One Server To Another
Apr 1, 2006Historically, many of us have used bulk copy to move selected contents of syslogins from one server to another so that the logins stayed in sync for things such as replication, log shipping, etc.
In SQL 2005, I have no access to passwords (this is proper from a security perspective) so I can't generate a file with bulk copy. I also can't update sys.server_principals, so it doesn't really matter that I can't export the passwords.
So what is the SQL 2005 solution? Suppose I decide to mirror my database. How do I get the logins that are users of that database over to the mirror server? Scripting the logins won't work because it generates a random password. sp_change_users_login requires me to provide a password but then I would have to know each login's current password or give them each a new password. This is viable with 2 users; it is not viable with 2000!
I know that Copy Database Wizard will move the logins with the passwords intact, but it will assign new SIDs to SQL Server authentication logins. That's fine as long as it is a one-time move but not if I am maintaining a warm standby.
This problem has been one of the most frequent problems posted on newsgroups, etc. in the past. But we have had solutions. I fear that we do not have one in SQL 2005.
I'd appreciate any help you can provide.
Thanks,
Sharon
Lost SQL Logins, But Still Have DB Logins - Script To Recreate SQL Logins?
Jan 21, 2007ok, first, I know... I forgot to run a backup of the master database, and I forgot to run a script to caputure logins. Not that that is out of the way... I need to recreate the logins under the Securities tab below the databases. All the company databases have the user names and passwords assigned to them, but they are not able to login, because they are not able to authenticate to the SQL server first.
Is there a script that someone has that will copy the company database security info for the users and recreate them in the SQL security tab?
I know that I can rebuild them manually, but I need to delete them first in the application software, then delete them from the databases, and then recreate them in the application software... and as simple as that sounds... it is a slow moving process.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
John

What's the best way to solve this problem?
Please, help

How To Map Logins...
Dec 21, 2000Hi,
I have two servers (server1, server2). I was trying to access the data from server1 to server2. I linked the servers and set up the option for data access.
when I run the following command from server1: sp_remoteoption 'server2', 'sa', 'sa', TRUSTED, TRUE
It gives me the following error. How to handle this.
Server: Msg 15185, Level 16, State 1, Line 0
There is no remote user 'sa' mapped to local user 'sa' from the remote server 'server2'.
I appreciate your help.
Thank you.

700 Logins
Apr 13, 2000I have a server that was recently upgraded from SQL 6.5 to 7.0 that contains almost 700 logins using standard security. Is there a limit to the number of logins that SQL will host? The logins/users have all been added using a GUI within an application and does not support NT authentication. Does this cause any known problems in SQL 7? When I right click on the database and go to properties / permissions MMC gets hung up. Also one of the systems analysts is convinced that SQL is dropping permissions (I disagree to this). Any one have any thoughts or experience with large numbers of logins / users?

Using Logins
Jul 23, 2005Hello,I'm currently developing an access application which uses sql server as abackend.What i'm uncertain about, is how i should setup security without creatingtoo many sql server logins. I'm convinced that i should limit access to sqlserver, otherwise people can get in with other means than my application(e.g. odbc, sem, etc.).I've setup sql server in mixed mode and created a login for my applicationto connect to a database.So, what is the best way to implement tight security, but still be able tolog the current user and hostname? If a separate table is needed to createdusers and passwords, please tell me how to use it, i've never done thatapproach.Thnx------------------------------------------------------This mailbox protected from junk email by MailFrontier Desktopfrom MailFrontier, Inc. http://info.mailfrontier.com

Jul 20, 2005On a huge Sql-Server 7 installation, we have various client applicationsdistributed along the Lan, accessing one main database.Each application accesses the db using one out of around ten logins. Most ofthem, have only DBDataReader right on the db, as they are consultationconsolles only.In order to monitor db usage, the customer requires some kind of log of useraccess.My need, mainly, is to INSERT a record into a log table, recording Date,Time, Login, Host of each access.But, and this is the problem, the job has to be done by the server itself,not by each client, because of various reasons:1) we don't like to increase rights of logins2) we don't plan to change anything in our custom client application3) few of those client applications have been developed by foreignsuppliers, so we cannot change them.My question is: does it exist any kind of authentication LOG, which I canwork on?Or, is it possible to activate a kind of TRIGGER, reacting on loginauthentication?Thanks in advanceAlberto

Logins/sec
Jun 19, 2007I'm monitoring 2005 while running our application by looking at
sys.dm_os_performance_counters, general statistics, logins/sec.
I began testing a .NET 2 application, and logins/sec went from 63 to 11,433 in 30 minutes. Even though I have closed the application, it is still showing 11,449 - the only thing that's happened in the last hour is that I've run some queries from QA. is this login number cumulative, or is it an actual reflection of logins/sec? How on earth could that many logins be happening when no one else can even get to that server?
