We setup a number of roles with access rights to tables in the DB. This week for some unknown reason, rights on these roles disappeared.
We had to run a restore to reset the roles in the database. After the restore, we could not reproduce the problem.
Are there scenarios to avoid that would cause rights to drop from roles and users? (These rights were gone not just hidden)

Whats the difference between db_owner and public role...
I want to create a role and add user to it..that user will have all the permissions on all the tables (our tables), all permissions on all stored procedures, triggers, views...that user is owner of all objects....right now we have to manually grant these permissions to each user, and I was think if I create a role I don't have to what happens with stored procedures and jobs ??
Can some one help me the script to do this... am reading lots of articles about these but none have clear instructions...
How do you create
db_datareader, db_datawriter roles ??
I cannot use EM as I have to send this script with our application..
Thanks

I have a number of jobs that will need to be run in an adhoc fashion(no set schedule).
I will be utilizing a mainframe operations staff and would like to limit their access on SQLServer
as much as possible while allowing them start jobs and view history. What would be the best way to go about this?
Thanks in advance.
Hi,
How to set permissions for users to run or edit packages?
How to notify the changes made to packages and where to find the change notifications?
Hello,I am trying to write a script using SQL Server 2000 to list all of theroles that have any permissions on a specified object (view, table,sp, etc.). Essentially I am trying to script what is displayed whenone selects the 'list only users/user-defined database roles/publicwith permissions to this object' option under 'manage permissions' inEM but without showing individual users, only roles. I've looked atthe system sp's and the information_schema views but none of thoseseem to give this information. Am I going to have to look directly atthe system tables? If anyone has a script that does this for aspecified object or can point me to more specific information on howto do this I'd appreciate it. Thanks!Bruce

View 2 Replies View RelatedA question on the permissions hierarchy:
Since logins, database users, and database roles are both principals and securables - what does it mean to GRANT permission on a login/user/role to another principal? Does it mean that for a login - you can GRANT permission to EXECUTE AS that login or modify it, for example?
I have jsut started using SQL server 7 and am having problems with accounts permissions, users,roles, groups, owners etc what are the differences?
View 1 Replies View RelatedAs 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!
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...
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.
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?
Today when I tried to troubleshoot a failed job, I found out that the job history is disappreared. Some jobs' history still exist. Does anybody have idea what happened? How can I fix it?
Thanks a lot.
When I removed/re-installed SQLServer 2005 (Express) all of my dll's related to SQL Server disappeared from C:ProgramFilesMicrosoft SQLServer90SDKAssemblies: .ConnectionInfo, .Smo,.SMOEnum,.SQLEnum,.WmiEnum that I know of - maybe more.
How can I re-install these? Are they in the SQL kit, VB, SDK ???
Any help would be appreciated.
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,

Hi,
We had 5 instances of SQL Server running on one of our machines and everything looked to be working fine. Today I installed another instance for a new application and once done and rebooted the new instance didn't show in the SQL Server Enterprise Manager. At this point we decided to uninstall it. After that 4 of the existing instances have diapered as well even though they are running and responding requests from their respective applications.
I did some googling and all I could see is something related to a command called nscontrol but I couldn’t find any nscontrol executable on that machine.
Does anyone have any idea what this problem could be?
Thanks
Hi All,
I encountered a bizzard situation. The guest id in tempdb disappeared after I rebooted (shutdown and startup) my server. That caused errors in application whenever a stored proc needs to create a temporary table.
Has anyone seen this happened before? Any idea on why or how it happened?
Thanks in advance.
On Tuesday the SQL Server Counters showed up in Performance Monitor. Yesterday they were gone. Is there any way they could have disappeared other than someone explicitly deleted them? How would I go about restoring them? Obviously, I'm concerned.
Thanks for the help.
I have a stored procedure that for some reason disappeared on me. When I do “select * from the sysobjects”, it’s there. When I look at it from the EM, it’s not there. I refreshed everything a lot of times. Here is the data I get from the sysobjects:
myproc90587511U 141610615041224002002-01-26 15:41:13.44702240U 18302002-01-26 15:41:13.447000005200
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Hello,
I was modifying some standard reports of one planning program, by downloading .rdl file from report server and creating a new report project. I have done so many times.
Last weak in one of those new reports only header of the report was seen in the report server as I thought I had made some kind of mistake tried to look for it, and after some time the problem fixed itself and I blamed everything on one mixed up connection between the tables in the report, because after removing it the problem fixed itself, but now I think that was just a coincidence.
This weak after working fine for about a weak, 6 reports appeared as only headers and footers, they worked fine yesterday and no changes were made to the reports, but in the morning only the header is seen.
The reports that are affected are the 4 new ones, and 2 original ones, they are all dealing with the same date just different grouping and sorting.
Does anyone know how to fix this problem?

hello,
am not sure if this is the right forum to post this.
We have a couple of sites running MS SQL, however we have never had issues with data corruption.
I was working with a certain site and then noticed that all users in the users table were missing except one.
Secondly, the users table had all permissions revoked.
how did this happen and whats the best way to go about restoring it.

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.
Using SQL Server 2k5 sp1, Is there a way to deny users access to a specific column in a table and deny that same column to all stored procedures and views that use that column? I have a password field in a database in which I do not want anyone to have select permissions on (except one user). I denied access in the table itself, however the views still allow for the user to select that password. I know I can go through and set this on a view by view basis, but I am looking for something a little more global.

Does anybody know how to set up a role that can only set up jobs in Sql7.0.
TIA - Philip
I might be missing something. I have 'upsized' an Access database to SQL 7.0. I then created new users on the server. I then added them to the database and gave them the role db_datawriter. When they try to connect, they can't. When I look at the permissions tab for the tables, I see their ID's, but none of the boxes are marked. Did I forget to do something?
