SQL Security :: Can Hide Databases From Users Who Don't Have Access In Management Studio

Apr 21, 2015

I have a client who would like to access his database via SQL Server Management Studio. I created a login for him. This login has access only to his database on the server (I set this up using the user mapping), the Securables has Connect to SQL checked (otherwise he won't see his database).  When I test this login, he is able to see all the other databases on the server, though when he clicks on the ones he doesn't have access to, it will tell him that he can't access that database.  He can access his database alright.  My question is, can I hide all the other databases from him, and only display that only database he has access to?  I have tried many different ways, I can't seem to be able to do so.

Deny Users Access To Database Via Management Studio

Mar 4, 2008

Is there a way to deny the users the ability to open a server via Management Studio but still allow remote connections.

In my program I need an admin login to do various things. I am using the sa login and setting the password on install of Sql Express. But, if someone changes the password for the sa login after installation and I have the login for sa hard coded in my program, then everything will break. Is there a way to make sure that no one can change the sa password?

Can't Access Reporting Services In Management Studio Or Web Interface Using Windows Integrated Security

May 12, 2008

I know from searching this forum that there have been many variations of the issue I'm currently suffering, but I haven't found anything quite like mine or a solution to solve it. The issue I'm running into is that I am unable to log on to Reporting Services using Management Studio or the web interface when Windows Integrated Security is enabled. I have full functionality using basic security, but the risks involved make it impossible to deploy basic authentication out into production. The error I'm receiving in Management Studio is The request failed with HTTP status 401: Unauthorized. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.UI.RSClient). I recieve the same error when I try the web interface.

I've looked the most recent logfile in WindowsSystem32LogFilesW3SVC1 and these entries match up to the time I attempted my authentication.

I tried to highlight one of each of the HTTP errors I am getting. 401.2 and 401.1 are the ones I kind of expected, but have no idea why I'm getting them. The 500 0 error is a bit troubling, because unless I'm mistaken thats a server side error.

Here's my current setup. As far as I can tell, I've done everything to set up correctly for Windows Integerated security.



My Specs
The server machine running all SQL 2005 services. It resides in a domain. All Clients are in the same domain.


Intel Dual Processor 3.20 gig Xenon

Windows Server 2003 w/ SP2

Microsoft Sql Server 2005 w/ SP2
Reporting Services Setup
The virtual directories Reports and ReportServer are set to Windows Integrated Security with Anonymous Access disabled. All other checkboxes in Directory Security are unchecked. For permissions in Reports, I have:


Administrators (servernameAdministrators) - Full Control

ASP.NET Machine Account - Modify, Read & Execute, List Folder Contents, Read, Write

Authenticated Users - Modify, Read & Execute, List Folder Contents, Read, Write

Creator Owner - No permissions

Domain Users - Read & Execute, List Folder Contents, Read

SQLServer2005ReportingServices]WebServiceUsers$... - Read & Execute, List Folder Contents, Read

SQLServer2005ReportServerUsers$... - Read & Execute, List Folder Contents, Read

SYSTEM - Full Control

Users (CompNameUsers) - Read & Execute, List Folder Contents, Read
In ReportServer I have the same permissions except Authenticated Users is absent.

At one point, I even added the account Everybody and gave it full control, and I still recieved a HTTP 401 error. Any help at what I might be missing would be a godsend.

Thanks.

How Do I Hide Databases From External Users?

Jan 31, 2003

I am going to give user rights for an external user to connect to my SQL Server via Client Network Utility.

Atlough I have given user permissions to only access one database and not the whole list, how do I make sure that they cannot see all the other databases on my SQL Server?

I have 20 instances of databases on my SQL Server and ideally I would like to give 20 different people access - but each of them when they enter my SQL Server, should not even know that the other databases exist.

Thanks.

Management Studio Lists All Databases

Oct 18, 2005

I was under the impression that Management Studio wouldn't list any databases that a user doesn't have access to.  But if I create a new user and give them db_owner permissions to just one database, if they log into Management Studio, they are able to see all databases listed.  They don't have access to do anything further, but they can still see the list which I thought was handled better in 2005.

Can't Create Databases In Management Studio

Feb 5, 2006

I seem to be having a number of problems using managment studio (MS) against my locally installed SQL 2005 Standard Edition. E.g. when I create a default database using MS it says...



TITLE: Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio
------------------------------

Failed to retrieve data for this request. (Microsoft.SqlServer.SmoEnum)

For help, click: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink?ProdName=Microsoft+SQL+Server&LinkId=20476

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:

For help, click: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink?ProdName=Microsoft+SQL+Server&ProdVer=09.00.1399&EvtSrc=MSSQLServer&EvtID=7404&LinkId=20476



However, the hyperlinks are less than helpful. I also get problems doing various maintance work from MS. I don't think its a database engine problem 'cause I can do all the work via TSQL DDL but the interface is so much easier to use (or should be). BTW it's running on XP Pro (firewall problem?).

Security Error When Execute Sp From An Application, But Not From SQL Management Studio.

May 8, 2008


Hello,
I am facing a very odd behavior with SQL server 2005.
I have a database role with specific permissions to execute only some of the stored procedures in the database. I also have a SQL login/user attached to the role.

If I execute one of the stored procedures from the application (web application, with Microsoft enterprise library database block) I am getting a security error stating that I need select permission for the schema.
However, If I execute the same sp with the same parameters from SQL management studio, connecting with the same SQL login as in the application I can execute the sp without any security errors. The SQL management studio is in on a different server than the targeted database.

Are there any differences between executing stored procedures from SQL MS and from application when using the same SQL login?

Thanks,
IT

How Not To Display All Databases Under Sql2k Using Sql Management Studio?

Jun 7, 2006

When you use sql 2005 management studio to connect to a sql 2005 server, you can deny view on any database and one user will not be able to see any database that he/she does not own.

However, what about if this person uses sql 2005 management studio to connect to a sql 2000 server. Since sql 2005 management studio does not call the store procedure sp_MSdbuseraccess, it will display all the database in the server.

It does not seem like I can use "deny view on any database to username" on a sql 2000 server.

Does anyone have any idea what I need to do in order to not show all the database when I use sql 2005 management studio to connect to a sql 2000 server box?

Thank you.

What Is The Security Setting To Allow Editing Of Stored Procedures From Management Studio?

Nov 28, 2007

Greetings
Running SQL Server 2005. The developers on the project can see and edit stored procedures from within the Visual Studio IDE (via Server Explorer) but when they connect through management studio, the stored procedures do not show up at all.

Is there a seperate security setting specifically for management studio?

The user has:

The dbCreator Server Role

Is mapped to the development database as dbo with datareader/datawriter/db owner/public role
Is mapped to master reader/writer/public
Is mapped to model reader/writer public
Is mapped to msdb reader/writer public
Is mapped to tempdb reader/writer publuc

This is probably more security than the user needs, but was grasping at straws to let them edit stored procedures...

I Need Some Simple Security (for SQL Server Management Studio) In A Group Of Programmers.

Dec 5, 2007

Hi, I'm working in a web project.
In our lab, all the PCs are installed with SQL Server Management Studio, and the codes of the site are left by the previous batch of programmers.
Here is briefly how our web works, the web will call the sql server providing a username (userA) and password (aaaaaa) to log into the database, then the web can connect to the database to do various functions like select, insert, update and delete.

Currently anyone can go to thier SQL Server Management Studio on thier PC to edit various things like names and columns of tables by logging in as userA.

But, we now only want a small number of users to have the ability to change things in the database. What are some ways we can do that?

Something that I've thought of is that only allow userA to log in and do functions like select, insert, update and delete and do not have the ability to edit things like names and columns of tables. Have a userB with password only known to me that can have full control of the database which I have done.

How Can I See My Databases In Management Studio Express, As A Limited User?

I installed SQL Server 2005 Express, and Management Studio Express, while logged on as an Administrator of my XP Pro machine. When I switch to my limited user account, Management Studio Express seems not to be aware that SQL Server is even running on the machine (although Configuration Manager can see it and reports that it is running). I'm sure I've missed something simple, but I can't find the answer anywhere... how can I get access to my local SQL Server from my limited user account?

Security Rights Needed To Start And Stop Services From SQL Server Management Studio

Jun 21, 2007

Hello everyone.

I have a question about granting enough rights to allow a non admin user to start and stop a sql server service via the SQL Server Management Studio by right clicking on the server node.



I have changed the acl's of the SQL Server service security and gave the user rights to start and stop the service. This does allow them to connect remotly to the server using computer manager and they successifully start and stop the service. But, in SQL Server Management Studio the option still does not show up, unless he is a admin of the server.



Does anyone know what other security settings I need to address for the start and stop to show up when I right click on the server node?

Thanks for any help

Managing SQL Express Databases With Standard Version Of SQL Server Management Studio

Mar 28, 2008

I have a windows 2003 server which has SQL 2005 Express with advanced services installed on it. Then a few weeks back the company purchased SQL server Standard Edition which comes with SQL Server Management Studio (which has more features than SQL Server Management Studio Express currently installed on the server where sql express is running)I have been trying to schedule a maintanance plan on the SQLExpress Instance database from the SQL Server Management Studio that came with the standard version of sql but i have not been able to have all SQL Server Management Studio functionality available when connected to the SQLExpress instance. So is there a way i can connect to the Express Instance from management studio(that comes with the standard edition of sql) and have all its functions available when working with a SQL express database. Or i must upgrade the express database?

Installing Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express Broke My Asp.net Databases

Jul 14, 2006

Morning,

I installed the managerment stuid on my machine and now none of my database connections seem to work any more. I keep getting the attached error. Before I installed the studio the system worked fine, I could connect to the database and everything was fine. Does the studio change any permission stuff? I cannot seem to get it to work again at all now, I added in aspnet as a login inside the studio and it still won't let me connect to the database. I cannot find *any* logs anywhere that might be helpful in what it is doing or see any way to debug the connection to find out what the problem is. When I look at the permissions inside of the studio it shows me that the connections should all be fine.

I checked and remote and local connections are setup, although it is only doing local connections anyway since this is a asp.net web server page.

Any idea what the problem is here? This is very frustrating and annoying :( Since I didn't change anything and now nothing I will do gets it to work. I even tried to uninstall the management tool and it still doesn't work.
Cannot open user default database. Login failed.
Login failed for user 'GREENANDFLUFFYASPNET'.



Description: An
unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web
request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the

SSIS Access From SQL Server Management Studio

Jan 9, 2006

I am trying to develop a package using SSIS to get rid of Informatica.

But I am not able to connect to the SSIS from the SQL Server Management Studio. The error message is 'Connect to SSIS Service on machine XXXXX failed: Access denied'. I am using Windows authentication and I am in the DTSADMIN role. I have 'dbo' privileges in all the databases in the Server where the SSIS Service is running (Yes, I checked and the SSIS Service is running). The SSIS is installed in the same Server as my SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition is running.

I can see that the same issue is posted by many people and no answer is posted againt it. It will be greatly appreciated by many beginners to SSIS if the answer to this question is available generally.

I have another question too. How do I transfer data between two databases in two SQL Server 2000 machines using SSIS? I really want to use something like the BCP OUT and BCP IN with memory pipes to avoid the intermediate data landing. How do I achieve it? I do not want to use the linkedserver here because of the excessive logging for the huge data volume I have.

Any answer to the above questions are greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance...

2nd SSRS Instance (named) Access Via Management Studio

Oct 18, 2006

I have installed and configured a 2nd instance of SSRS 2005 Standard Edition SP1 on a Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition SP2. The 2nd instance is using it's own database and virtual directories under the default website. All configuration steps ran without error. I have no problem accessing the 2nd instance virtual directories via IE. When I connect to Reporting Services via Management Studio, it gives me no options for which instance to access and connects to the default instance. How do I connect to a 2nd named instance of SSRS via Management Studio? I've found no documentation in BOL related to this.

Procs Fails In MS Access, Works In Management Studio

Apr 4, 2008

I have a stored procedure which is run through MS Access (yuck). It does not appear to fail, but it does not populate certain tables, and is also rather complex. I did not write it, and am trying my best to fix it. However, when I run the same procedure with the same parameters from within Management Studio (database state is the same, I restore from backup before trying out each execution) it populates the tables correctly. I have profiled both executions (from MS and from Access) and it is running with the same NTUsername, and thus the same permissions. The process used to work and then some changes were made to the DB which seem to have broken it from Access. As far as I know, the Access code has not changed, although it may have done so. The proc call from Access uses the same parameters, and does not throw an error, although it does not appear to close the connection to the DB (I'm looking into this). Access uses an ODBC connection to connect to SQL Server.

Any ideas?

SQL Security :: Adding A Windows Login Did Not Permit Access To End User Databases

Oct 24, 2015

Deleting a Login from a server instance and adding it back did not show that the login was still mapped to databases. In SQL Server 2008, adding a Windows Login did not permit access to end user databases until the Windows Login was mapped to various databases. In SQL Server 2012, once a Windows Login is added to SQL Server Security, it may access ANY end user databaseWe use the following to circumvent this problem, Windows Login by Windows Login: DENY VIEW ANY DATABASE TO [TESTTest1]

SQL Database User Account Access Remotely Via SQL Management Studio Express

Aug 20, 2007

Hi, I hope you can help.I have configured a Windows 2003 web server and SQL 2005 Server (on same box) to successfully allow remote connections and to allow access via SQL Server Management Studio Express 2005.The problem I have is that I want to restrict access to the databases on the server via the Management Studio to specific databases e.g. 1 database user "sees" only 1 database.I can configure it so that the user's remote  access permissions do not allow access to other databases but they can still "see" the database listed in the Management Studio explorer.I can also configure it so that the users cannot see all the databases (by disabling View All Databases on SQL Server), but this means that they cannot not see their own database which they have permissions for.Is it impossible to have the desired behaviour of only displaying the database which the remote user accessing has permissions for and hiding all other databases?I have MSN'd,Googled and Yahoo'd this one to no avail :(Many thanksFergus

Are The Databases Created Within VWD Express Accessible By Aspnet_regsql.exe Or Management Studio Express?

Nov 13, 2006

Hi,When I attempt to add the membership functionality to a database created within VWD Express, by using the aspnet_regsql.exe application (connecting to ./SQLEXPRESS using Windows authentication), the database I've created within VWD Express doesn't appear within the list of accessible databases. I have the same problem when attempting to access the same database within Management Studio Express.Does this mean that databases created from within VWD Express don't use the same storage mechanism or paradigm as those already available within Management Studio Express? Or perhaps I need to somehow register the database using Management Studio Express? As a side note, I'm not sure if the "File/Open File" menu option within Management Studio Express holds the answer to my problems, but rather bizarrely, it crashes Management Studio Express when I select it.Apologies for the rambling - in essence my question is "How can I make databases created within VWD Express appear within aspnet_regsql.exe and/or Management Studio Express?"Many thanks,Jon

SQL Server Management Studio Express Won't Open SQL Server Compact 3.5 Databases

May 7, 2008

Hi all

Which tool can I use for structure editing of SQL Server Compact 3.5 databases? I'm installed SQL Server Compact 3.5. I have SQL Server Management Studio Express which was installed with SQL Server 2005 Express. Unfortunately this SSMS can create and open only 3.1 databases.

SQL Server Management Studio Express (SSMSE)=&&>Object Explorer=&&>Databases Has C:SSMSE-BookChapter12WINCH12NORTHWND.MDF?

Feb 27, 2008

Hi all,

In my SQL Server Management Studio Express (SSMSE)=>Object Explorer=>Databases, the "NORTHWND" database was screwed up and is deleted completely. But under the same Object Explorer =>Databases, there is a database "C:SSMSE-BookChapter12WINCH12NORTHWND.MDF". I need to use this "NORTHWND" database in the SqlConnection. How can I specify the "Initial Catalog" (or "database") in the New SqlConnection code statement (in the ADO.NET 2.0-VB 2005 Express programming)?
Should it be like the following:

Dim sqlConnection As SqlConnection = New SqlConnction("Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS; Initial Catalog=C:SSMSE-BookChapter12WINCH12NORTHWND; Integrated Security=SSPI;") ? Or what is the right code statement for connecting to it?

Please help and advise.

Thanks in advance,
Scott Chang

Data Access :: Management Studio To Access Data On Laptop?

Jun 30, 2015

I have a client who has SSMS installed on her laptop.  She is able to connect to the SQL server via SSMS in the office and query data on the server.

She needs to be out of site often and doesn't have internet access.  She asks if the data tables can be "backed up" or saved on her laptop, so she can look at them without worrying connecting to the server.  I am not sure if this can be achieved, as SSMS is built for accessing a server, not a desktop.  Myself never have this need.  If I really need it, I would go to Microsoft Access and create an ODBC connection to the datatables. But this client thinks that Microsoft Access is beneath her.

Hide System Tables From Users?

Mar 7, 2008

How can I hide the system tables (sys and INFORMATION_SCHEMA) from users? I am not talking about Management Studio. We have users who access the database with ODBC and I do not want them to see all these system tables.

I have created a Hide_System_Tables role and added users to it. I have tried denying all the permissions to this role, but they still see it. Oddly enough, in the INFORMATION_SCHEMA permissions, it shows access from grantors of INFORMATION_SCHEMA and dbo. I cannot deny permission for the entries with dbo as grantor.

Does anyone have any suggestions on where I have to go to remove all the places that give users access to these tables?

Thanks,
Mike

Hide System Tables From Users

Jan 28, 2008



Hi,

Can someone help me to hide all system views/tables from users?
I do not want the users to see all system tables/views, so they can have a clear view for only user tables in their schema.

Thx,

Vicki
