Password Encryption
Oct 28, 2005I have an Access .adp application and I need to store the passwords encrypted. I see that there are unsupported functions pwdencrypt() and pwdcompare() in SQL server 2K.
Are there any other functions or methods in SQL Server 2000 that could be called that would provide this capability?

Question About Encryption And Password Protection
Aug 1, 2007Howdy!
Couple quick questions:
1) How much does setting encryption cost in terms of speed of querying and cpu usage?
2) If encryption is not set, is the password "encrypted" when its sent with the initialization routine?
Thanks in advance!

SQL 2005: Symmetric Encryption With Asp.net Page, Login, Username, Password
Nov 29, 2007I currently have a login page in asp.net 2.0 linked to a SQL 2005 database table that holds the usernames and passwords. At present, I am on an "honor system" where I do have access to the passwords of the other users but would like to change it so that I cannot know what the users' passwords are. Thank goodness that there is no personal information within the pages and the logins were created to keep a log of who logs in and what not. However, I would like to soon hold more personlized information, hence the need to encrypt each user's password even from myself.
I have read up on Symmetric Encryption for SQL 2005 but I would like to know if there is anything else available, any good proven methods that someone else has already tried.
Also, while testing out Symmetric Encryption, I noticed that I have to supply the encryption password for the decryption. However, if I know what the password for the encryption/decription is, does it not defeat the purpose of having the encryption at all, in terms of the "Admin" having access to sensitive information? Just curious if I understood the concept correctly or not.
Thanks in advance to all.
Export Username / Password To CSV File To Test SP To Output Username / Password
Jun 2, 2014I put this together to export the user name /password to a csv file to test my SP to output the user name/password.
DECLARE @user_name varchar(50)
DECLARE @psswrd varchar(10)
SELECT @user_name ,@psswrd
FROM ngweb_bulk_enrollments
EXEC master.dbo.xp_cmdshell 'bcp NGDevl.dbo.ngweb_bulk_enrollments out C: est.csv -Sserver1 -T -t, -r
-c'
This works but I don't get the headers in the file. How can I include the headers?
Encryption In MDF File Possible?
Apr 28, 2006I am working on a distributed application that will use a SQL Express 2005 MDF file for the primary application data storage. The program will be storing sensitive data and I would like to encrypt the data in it.
I have searched through the forums and cannot find any reference to how to enable encryption for an MDF file.
I thought about writing my own encrypt / decrypt functions, however, I'm using databound controls and do not have a home-grown data access layer that I can tap into to implement the encryption.
When I originally added the MDF file to my application, under the "Advanced" settings, I saw that I could switch an "Encryption" property to "True"... figuring that would do the trick. However, when the MDF file is created I get an error stating, "The instance of SQL Server you attempted to connect to does not support encryption".
What is the trick for encrypting data in an MDF file that is being used with databound controls? Remember that this will be a distributed app - so if there are any customizations that are required on the SQL Express side to support this - I will need to find some way to configure SQL Express on the target machines during my bootstrap install of it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
SQL Data File Encryption
Jan 4, 2007Is there any way to encrypt the sql server mdf and ldf data files in SQL Server 2005 without using EFS or creating an additional system user? Only one application which has the password embedded (i know this is a security risk) should be able to connect to the database and access the mdf and ldf files.

SQL Security :: Encryption 2005 - User Defined Function For Encryption And Decryption
Oct 7, 2015I have created two user defined functions for encryption and decryption using passphrase mechanism. When I call encryption function, each time I am getting the different values for the same input. While I searching a particular value, it takes long time to retrieve due to calling decryption function for each row.
best way to encrypt and decrypt using user defined functions.Below is the query which is taking long time.
SELECT ID FROM table WITH (NOLOCK)
                    WHERE dbo.DecodeFunction(column) = 'value'
When I try to use symetric or asymetric encryption, I am not able to put "OPEN SYMETRIC KEY" code in a function. So, I am using PassPhrase mechanism.
FILE DSN NOT STORING PASSWORD!
May 26, 1999HI,
We are using a VB component which utilises a FILE DSN to connect to SQL but we have noticed that when using SQL Authentication in setting up the DSN in the control panel the password does not get saved. So the only way we can connect is to have a user with no password i.e blank.
we only noticed this when we tried to use a user other than sa which happened to have a password that is blank.
Has anybody else found a solution to this problem ?

XML Configuration File : How To Save Password?
Jan 16, 2008
Hm... I use SSIS packages to manipulate some data from one SQL server to another. I chosed "DontSaveSensitiveData" and I am using a XML configuration file.
The problem is I have to edit the file with notepad manually and add the password for my SQLconnections in it.
Is it possible to do this from the Business Intelligence Studio instead?
I tried to edit the connections and set and save password there but it won't save it to the XML configuration file.
Or perhaps it is intended to be edited in notepad and passwords set manually to it?
ODBC Password Not Saved In Configuration File
Apr 19, 2006Hi,
I have an SSIS package that pipes data from an iSeries data source to a SQL Server table. The connection manager I am using is the .Net ProvidersOdbc Data Provider
When I run this SSIS package on my developer PC (from inside BIDS or using the Management Studio Execute Package Utility) it works. However when I run the package from within a SQL Server Agent Job it fails.
I have enabled logging and the error message given is:
System.Data.Odbc.OdbcException: ERROR [28000] [IBM][iSeries Access ODBC Driver]Communication link failure. comm rc=8002 - CWBSY0002 - Password for user MALLPRESS on server SMICHC is not correct, Password length = 0, Prompt Mode = Never, System IP Address = 172.16.0.4 ERROR [28000] [IBM][iSeries Access ODBC Driver]Communication link failure. comm rc=8002 - CWBSY0002 - Password for user MALLPRESS on server SMICHC is not correct, Password length = 0, Prompt Mode = Never, System IP Address = 172.16.0.4
It gives the message €œPassword length = 0€? despite the fact that I have specified a password in the package.
To try to get around this I have added an XML configuration file to the SSIS package. In this configuration file I€™ve set values for the ConnectionString, UserName, and Password.
I still get the above error about a password length of 0.
I have also tried to execute the package using dtexec, but this gives a similar error.
The SQL used to run this is:
xp_cmdshell 'dtexec /sq "SCSRV-06DTS PackagesStagingStagingBranchImport"'
This has got me stumped, and I€™m not sure where to go from here as these packages need to be programmatically run each morning. At the moment I am manually running them from within BIDS.
All packages that don€™t use an iSeries connection manager run successfully in SQL Agent jobs.
I have also tried using the OLEDB connection manager (ibm db2 udb for iseries ibmda400 ole db provider) without success.
Any help would be very appreciated.
Thanks, Matt
Configuration File For Connection Info (how Do I Set Password)
Oct 27, 2006Hi All,
I'm new to SSIS. I'm trying to build a simple package, run it on dev and migrate it to our stg and tst environments. It works on my dev environment great! It simply loads data from a flat file into a table. The trouble i'm having is exporting the connection string info to an xml file and runnign it on other environments. I am not storing the package on the db. I am saving to a file and running through SQL Server BI Development Studio.
I go to "Configuration File" and export InitialCatalog, ServerName, User, Password to the file. I can manually change the xml to the new environment but don't know how to set the password. It's not in the xml and i am constantly getting "Login failed for 'sa'" errors. Anyone know how to do this. I CAN get this whole process to work if i use Windows authentication security but this isn't an option. I need to use the db security.
Thanks,
Dave
SQL 2000 DTS: Embed UserName/Password To Access File On Non-SQL Server
Feb 23, 2004I 'completed' a DTS package which uses a file on a non-SQL server. I am about to put this into production, so it runs automatically each evening. but just realized that it won't work unless it signs onto the source file's Windows 2000 server. It works for me when I'm testing it because I am always logged on the the Windows 2000 server.
I have been trying to figure out which DTS task I need to use to establish a connection by embedding my UserName and Password. Any tips woud be apprecitaed.
Thanks,
Randy

Is It Possiable To Store Password Encrypted To An External Config File?
Jun 2, 2006I got a problem when developing SSIS packages.
For security reason, the sensitive information must be encrypted, and they should be configurable dynamically (by an ASP.NET application).
so I tried several ways to achieve this,
1. use SSIS Package Configurations to generate an XML config file
It's a convenient way to generate config file. but the passwords are not encrypted (or I don't know how).
2. use Variables and Property Expressions
I can set variables by reading from an external custom xml config file which was content encrypted (read and decrypt the custom config file in a script task). but in a FTP Connection Manager entity, the Password property can not be set via Property Expressions.
Is any way to store password encrypted to an external file?
Failed To Decrypt Protected XML Node DTS:Password With Oracle As Source File
Oct 18, 2007Hello all, I have read many topics about this error but it doesn't fix my packages in my particular case. The problem is that I access to a database in Oracle using the Ole DB provider for Oracle
I get that the mentioned error when I try to run a job from the agent.
1 - When I set "DontSaveSensitive" to ProtectionLevel I get this error: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_OLEDBERROR. An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80040E4D.
An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Oracle" Hresult: 0x80040E4D Description: "ORA-01017: username/password no valid".
This is normal because the connection needs a password.
2 - When I set "EncryptSensitiveWithUserKey" to ProtectionLevel I get the mentioned error: "Failed to decrypt protected XML node "DTSassword" ..
The other options to ProtectionLevel doesn't work neither. I have tried to write the password in the field required...
I have tried many possibilities but nothing new, it doesn't work.
Does anybody have this error with Oracle as source file ???
Thank you .
Data Access :: How To Recover Forgotten Password When Remember Password Option Checked

View 3 Replies View RelatedSQL Server Agent Job Will Not Retain Package Password (encrypt Sensitive With Password)
Apr 1, 2008I 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?
Thank you
SQL 2005 SP2 - Windows 2003 Ent SP1 - Password Does Not Meet The Password Policy DLL
Jun 18, 2007I 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.
Any ideas as to a root cause?

Remember My Password Is Forgetting Password
Mar 11, 2008On 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?
Thanks,
Brian
Equivalent To MySQL's Password() Function? (was MySQL To SQL Server And Password())
Mar 3, 2005I 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.
Encryption
Aug 4, 2000I was wondering if anyone out there knows if it is possible to encrypt a particular field in a table, or encrypt a whole table. The info would remain on my database and not be sent out anywhere, but I just want an extra level of security against anyone who might try to break into the database.
