Query To Add Windows Authenticated User Via Remote Desktop [MS SQL Express]
Jun 17, 2007
I was able to do this on a Windows XP machine but I am not able to get this to work on a Windows 2003 Server machine.
I am connecting to the Windows 2003 Server and MS SQL Express via remote desktop on the lan.
This is what worked for me before:
EXEC sp_grantlogin '4800X2ASPNET'
USE MyDB
EXEC sp_grantdbaccess '4800X2ASPNET'
EXEC sp_addrolemember 'db_owner', '4800X2ASPNET'
But for some reason now I am getting this error:
Msg 15401, Level 11, State 1, Procedure sp_grantlogin, Line 49
Windows NT user or group '4800X2ASPNET' not found. Check the name again.
Msg 15401, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Windows NT user or group '4800X2ASPNET' not found. Check the name again.
Msg 15410, Level 11, State 1, Procedure sp_addrolemember, Line 75
User or role '4800X2ASPNET' does not exist in this database.
I thought what I needed to add was the name of this pc that will connect remotely, but that doesn't seem to be working.
What weird is the old copy of this query I used had the local pc as the computer name. If I exchange the computer name from the remote pc name to the local 2003 Server machine name, the query works fine. Although that still doesn't let me add connections via Web Developer Express without error. It doesn't make sense to me anyhows, how could I have used the local machine's name and not the remote machine's name to get this to work previously. So confused.

I have a 3rd party dashboard application that I can only use SQL authenticated logins to connect to the database.
I'm trying to create a query within the application that will directly access an excel file through a linked server.
As a test, I login to SSMS as the sql auth user to run the linked server query below but the following error is returned:
select * from Corporate...[Sheet1$]OLE DB provider "Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0" for linked server "Corporate" returned message "Cannot start your application. The workgroup information file is missing or opened exclusively by another user.". Msg 7399, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 The OLE DB provider "Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0" for linked server "Corporate" reported an error. Authentication failed. Msg 7303, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0" for linked server "Corporate".
When I login as a Windows auth user, I can successfully run the above query.
I noticed within the linked server's security definition that I cannot specify a windows auth user as the mapped Remote User or as the Remote login
I've tried creating a Credential object with the identity of the windows user and assign that object to the sql auth user but to no avail. I still get the same error
I am using SQL Server express so the option of an automated server agent job to import the excel file is not available.
ProblemWhen Remote Desktop to my main office machine, and when trying toconnect to SQL Express, I was becoming increasingly frustrated with thefollowing error:Error: 'Failed to generate a user instance of SQL Server due to afailure in starting the process for the user instance. The connectionwill be closed.'What is the solution?Solutions: ( pick any of the 3)1. Obtain and apply the patch http://support.microsoft.com/?id=8966132. Wait for the next Windows Service pack3.Of course if you can not get the patch, you can always do this (Note:You must have WinVnc server running in your remote computer)1. In the remote desktop session, reboot your computer.Click Start->Windows Security->Shutdown->Restart.Wait for some time to get machine up.2. Use your vncviewer to login to your remote computer. You can chooseto do all work via VNC or go to next step.3. Use remote desktop to login (this automatically closes the winvncsession).There you go, You did not create a remote session, but reused yourlocal session.
Does anyone know if it's at all possible to install SQL Server Express 2005 over a Remote Desktop on a Windows XP machine.
I know there are problems running SQL over Remote Desktop, in that it won't start up a User Instance, but I wasn't sure if we can install over Remote Desktop.
If it's not possible, can anyone point me to an official document stating this fact?
I am developing a windows application that needs to communicate with a remote SQL server 2005 database. Server allows remote connections and MSDTC service also running. Do I need to run MSDTC service on the client machine where I use desktop application ? any ideas ? It's throwing some error like An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections.
But my SQL Server allows remote connection, and I am able to do a select statement. But when I insert/update anything, it's throwing this error. I guess some problem with MSDCT. Anybody have any idea ?
We have a new production server with SQLserver 2005. Our department responsible ofr the installation made it as secure as possible, however. I have to put a new backup on to the server from the old production server. We ran into a problem when we removed the old database. I could not longer logon to the server with an authenticated user.
"A connection was successfully established with the server, but an error occured during the login process" "Shared memory provider : error 0 : No process is on the other end of the pipe"
Strange thing is when i create a new database with the same name. The user can logon to the server again.
Hello, In SQL, suser_sname() gives me connection user name (I am using a single user to create all connections), I authenticate users through a login form aginst a SQL login table. Is there any way I can get a username authenticated in an SQL query?
Have two C# applications - one WinForms desktop app, the other a WinForms smart device app. Both use SQL Server Compact CE 3.5 to store data locally. Both work just fine.
Now the desktop app needs to open and update the .SDF file that is stored on the Windows Mobile device. (Device will be docked via USB.)
What format would the path to the .SDF look like that the WinForms application would need to specify in order to open it?
I have an ASP.NET 2 external application that is using and mix of the web services and tables/sps available from my 2005 SSRS.
I want to add an authenticated user from the external application. I don't see a web service that will do this. I have been through the SP's and can create roles, authenticated users, policies etc. But I think I need to update the XmlDescription field in the SecData table.
Do I need to build this XML string from scratch or is there a function / sp / web service that will do this. XML is a long ways from my strong suit.
Or am I just crazy and I should redirect my users to the Security tab!
Hi. New to ASP.NET and first time posting. My web app connects to a SQL database - SQL authentication. Users login to the web app through the login server control. Once authenticated, it is my understanding that the user name and password are stored on the client as a cookie. How do you programmatically get this user info and use it for the userid and password parameters of the connection string? Is there a better way to use the authenticated user info to access a SQL database? Thanks
I've tried all I know in an effort to get SQL 2005 Express to allow remote connections on my customer's 2K3 server and I'm not having any luck. I've followed MSKB 914277, including adding the exceptions to their Windows firewall...even disabled the firewall altogether (for testing purposes), and I still can't get remote clients to connect. As suggested by various other posts, I used netstat -an to confirm that SQL is listening on port 1433 for the desired IP on the server.....and saw that it is listening. Here's a snippet:
TCP 192.168.0.2:1433 0.0.0.0:0 LISTENING TCP 192.168.0.2:1433 192.168.0.2:1738 ESTABLISHED TCP 192.168.0.2:1738 192.168.0.2:1433 ESTABLISHED TCP 127.0.0.1:1433 0.0.0.0:0 LISTENING
I can connect to the database locally (i.e. on the 2K3 server itself) using just the IP address .... tried with a DSN, UDL, ODBC, and SSMSE...all of which have no problems (as shown by the two, "ESTABLISHED" entries in the netstat results above which were from running SSMSE locally on the server at the time of the netstat). But if a remote computer on the network tries to connect, they cannot connect. Sorry, I don't have a copy of the error message the clients are getting yet.
I asked The customer's IT to confirm that the clients CAN can "see" the server (i.e. that there wasn't some kind of router or firewall blocking their path) and they sent me a copy of the server's pfirewall.log file. Here is an entry from the file that seems to show that client requests ARE getting to the server:
I'm starting to get in over my head here (I'm a programmer, not a DBA or Net Admin), but doesn't the above suggest that an incoming request came in from .4 on port 1213 and attempted to connect to .2 on port 1433, but the connection was denied or dropped by the server? If so, why? Is this related to another MS KB I read about connection pooling? I'm way over my head here and could use some help. Did I miss something subtle during configuration of SQL Express? Thanks in advance.
I am trying to add a linked server from a AMD x64 server (Windows 2003) with SQL Server 2005 64 bit to a Server running SQL 2000. These are not in the same domain.
I can create a linked server using the option "Be made using the login's current security context" but can not when trying to specify the security context, i.e. sa and the sa password. When I try I get the following message:
Msg 15185, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_addlinkedsrvlogin, Line 98 There is no remote user 'sa' mapped to local user '(null)' from the remote server 'DTS_FSERVER'.
I have several other x64 server that I have no problem creating a linked server and specifying sa and the sa password.
The problem with using "the login's current security context" option is that I get an error when trying to run any Jobs against the linked server. The job fails withe the following error:
Executed as user: NT AUTHORITYSYSTEM. Access to the remote server is denied because no login-mapping exists. [SQLSTATE 42000] (Error 7416). The step failed.
I'm sure the two errors are related. Any ideas what is going on?
I am attempting to use Visual Web Developer Express with a connection to a SQL Express db from a non-admin account on my XP Pro SP2 machine.
I can do everything in the app under an admin login, but can't seem to configure the db to allow the non-admin account access to the db. I've tried tweaking WMI, using Network Service, Local Service, and Local System with NT AUTHORITY, individual logins, and group permissions, but I'm stuck.
I am creating a windows application that is not going to be used in a controlled environment like a LAN or some other network, so I want to include a local database in the install of this app. Ideally, I would like to use SQL 2005 Express like you would MSDE or Access, but I am not sure if the user must have SQL Server installed on their machine in order for this to work and I don't have a machine without it to test on.
I connect to a compute via Remote Desktop Connection that is running SQL Server 2003. That part works. However, once I'm connected, and running SQL Server, I cannot see my user name in SQL, when I use the query, "SELECT user_name as ()". What I see instead is "DBO". Nor does it show me as being in a particlar group. I also cannot see my Windows Authentication remote computer name.
I think it has something to do with using my PC to do the Remote Desktop Connection and then from there, running SQL Server 2003, but am lost on this one.
Can anyone help? I sure would appreciate it! Thanks in advance!
********************************************************************* This forum is best viewed with a computer. Questions asked freely. Confusion happily shared.
I've experienced a problem (bug?) when deploying reports to the report server. My users kept complaining about losing authentication to reports when I deploy a new report. I found the problem but don't understand why this is happening. My collegue developped the earliest reports and loggs in with a different user on Remote Desktop to develop the reports. When the report is deployed, the datasources are deployed also.
Now when I log in on Remote Desktop with another user then my collegue and open the same report project, and check out the datasources, the credentials are gone ... ?!? So when I deploy a report the datasource with the empty credentials are deployed too, wich causes all the authentication problems.
My Question: How comes I can't see the user credentials my collegue filled in? When I open the report project the credentials are gone. I log out, my collegue loggs in, and the credentials are back
I suppose this has something to do with Remote Desktop and the users connecting to it?
My question is, is it possible to connect to an SQL database using the MSDE 2000 SP3a edition over the internet? And if so, how do I set it up? Thank you in advance.
M doing PDA Project in Vb.net Compact framework [ CF ]. In tht I need to do synchronization My PDA's database with Desktop Computer's database manually. So Plz Suggest me some options ..... One of them I know & Its RAPI.. --> "RAPI allows desktop based applications to talk with CE devices while they're connected to the desktop via ActiveSync".
but M confused regarding ActiveSync Bcoz i want to do it Manually.
I'm using ssms 2014, but got the same problem with 2012. I use ssms almost entirely on remote desktop sessions ( Windows 7, Server 2008R2, Server 2012 ). It may be related to having filtered job activity monitor windows open for hours, but about once per day ssms fails, and has to restart. Upon resuming usually only one of several queries is restored.
How do I add login user ASPNET to my SQL 2000 Desktop Engine Server?. I can not find the "Server Manager" in the Start - Programs. Is there any other way to get around adding ASPNET login to the SQL server so I can test my VB program. I got the error: Login failed for user 'com_nameASPNET'.
Do you believe that SqlServer Express can work absolutely without any administration? That is to say: my clients are people without any technical knowledge and they usually communicate never with me. Is SSE the correct database for this status, or should I use a desktop database like VFP or Access?
I am unable to install SQL 2005 Express on my XP desktop. I receive following error:
SQL Server 2005 setup has detected incompatible components from beta versions of Visual Studio .............
- I have uninstalled and reinstalled the Visual Studio 2005 Express many times - I do not see any version of SQL installed on my machine from Add/Remove Program - I checked the running processes and there is no instance of SQL running
I do not know where this incompatible version of SQL is on my machine. I am getting ready to format my machine but I want to see if someone can help me install 2005 express without having to format my PC.
We are looking at developing an SQL Server 2005 Database and I would like to use Windows Authentication rather than SQL Server Authentication to connect our client app.
In our development environment, we have two Servers, one being used as a file server and the other as an SQL Server. We have now set up a domain using the file server as the domain controller. (We had previously been set up to use a workgroup).
I have set up an active directory group called SqlDevelopers and added an active directory user called Jonathan to it.
On the SQL Sever, in management studio, I have set up a new server login which uses windows authentication called DomainSqlDevelopers. I used the GUI to verify I could see the domain and the group.
The default database is set to a test database on the server. A user in the test database is mapped to the DomainSqlDevelopers and given the Roles dbo, db_datareader, db_datawriter.
To test the log in, on the server, I logged out as administrator and in as Jonathan. I could successfully access the server through management studio using windows authentication.
However, if I log in as Jonathan on my client PC and try to access the SQL Server using management studio and windows authentication, I have problems.
The first time I try I will get a timeout error. If I try again will get either:
Login failed for user ''. The user is not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection
Or
Cannot generate SSPI context
I can€™t determine any pattern to which of the above errors I get.
However, if I log in as administrator on my client PC, I can connect to the server using management studio and windows authentication.
Sounds like Active Directory/Domain or other Network issue (Not really my area). I would be grateful for any help.
I have a user who cannot login to a .mdb when he is logged in to Windows, on his workstation or any other. No one can login to the .mdb when he is logged in to Windows.
He CAN login to the same .mdb if someone else is logged in to Windows, either on his workstation or any other.
When the user logs in he gets the following error:
MS SQL Server Login
Connection Failed:
SQL State: €˜28000€™
SQL Server Error 18456
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server] Login failed for user €˜domainusername€™
I have removed and recreated the ODBC Connection while he is logged in. I have tried changing the trusted login to administrator (in the window that pops up when he fails to connect).
He has the permissions he needs to the .mdb because he can login under anyone else€™s profile.
I tried copying his profile to a brand new user and ended up with the same result.
This leads me to wonder if there is some corruption in one of his profile€™s .dat files or ???
This is the boss€™ account and he does not want to be given a new username and profile€¦
