SQL Security :: What Windows Account Used Server Login To Access Server
May 14, 2015
If we have a "pool" SQL login, a one that uses SQL Server authentication, and this login is used by different domain account to access SQL Server, is there a way to audit which domain account used that "pool" login to do something on a object in SQL Server? I have to keep this way of accessing SQL Server, so how to create a login for every domain account accesses SQL Server
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]
I am using an unattended install script to install the database on the client machine. All the settings look correct. But my application cannot access the db -
Error: Cannot open database requested by the login.
Now when I install SQL Server Express manually, it works fine. I have the service running under local system and enabled user instances is true. I cannot figure out the problem(been working on it for 2 days).
I am testing restoring databases on another SQL 2005 server in out environment using HP data protector 5.5 and its great. However, I notice that the security login accounts do not get restored. If this is the case how do I go about getting accounts restored? Also, are there any other options?
Oracle and Teradata are able to capture the windows/client login that connects to their database with a functionnal ID.I've searched around and I don't think MS SQL can do this...I administer SQL 2014 server and also SAS Enterprise guide product. I've created sql server logins for several teams so everyone shares the same sql server login which is used to bind the SAS library to my SQL server database.
However, when looking at activity monitor, I can't drill down to which user is executing a particular query. I only see the SQL login which is share amongs 200 other folks.On the other hand, when they connect from SAS to Oracle or Teradata, I can see the shared login + additionally their windows NT login used to connect to SAS which is awesome....they can't fool me by using a shared/funcionnal ID....i still see who's using that ID...
i am currently trying to connect to sql server with one of the windows user accounts. I am trying to connect to it via a browser using a dns-less connection. I have put in all the correct user name and password details and it comes back with Login failed for user xxxxxxx.
If i create a user in sql server and put those login details in, it works fine.
Can i use windows users with a dns-less connection???
I have a server that has 20 databases . I have tested with few users with different level of access and all of them were able to connect to the server and also see, select, update , delete from a particular database which is kind of weird because they do not have a user login associated or mapped to that database. I checked and no user is part of any group in AD that would give them permission to connect . I need a query that would find the permission path of a user. I already queried with xp_logininfo but I am not getting any thing.
We are seeing login failures for windows accounts. Below is the error message.
Description:Â In our env most logins are windows accounts. Initially we thought it is an UAC issue and we tried to launch the SSMS using "Run as Administrator". However, we are seeing login failures.

Troubleshooting done: - Recreated the windows login in sql server. Doesn't work. - ran sp_valdidatelogins. it doesn't return any rows. - I belong to sysadmin role and when I say, getting below error message.
xp_logininfo 'domainloginname' /* Msg 15404, Level 16, State 19, Procedure xp_logininfo, Line 64 Could not obtain information about Windows NT group/user 'domainloginname', error code 0x5. */
We tried dropping this account and re-creating the windows account with same permissions but still result is same.It throws same error message. Login failure message !!!
I am getting the error: Cannot open database "aspnetdb" requested by the login. The login failed. When I browse to my ASP.NET 3.5 LINQ web application on the IIS 6.0 server on Server 2003. I imagine this is because while I granted SQL Server 2005 login and permissions to my database that the application stores its data in, I did NOT grant any rights to the service account the IIS Application Pool uses for its identity to the aspnetdb database on SQL Server which is where all my roles information is stored at. My question is what are the MINIMUM permissions needed for this database so it can perform its roles related functions? I'm using Windows Authentications with the SQL Role provider for authorization.
Thank you.
EDIT: I think I only need to open the aspnetdb database and add my login to the aspnet_Roles_FullAccess role. Is that correct?
In my DB (SQL 2012) one windows authentication is created automatically and a schema is created exactly automatically that this user is owner of this schema. (e.g the user is domainx and schema exactly domainx).
I created a DDL Trigger on my DB to find out who and how it is created , but I didn't get any useful information.
I change the owner of schema that I can delete the schema and after that delete the user, and sometimes because the user is owner of a service , I have to alter the owner of the service to DBO and delete the user , but again and again exactly this user and schema (e.g domaninx ) are created as soon as I delete it.
I have read these topics : [URL] .... and [URL] .... but can't solve my problem.
I have a test environment set up at home with a small windows server 2003 Active Directory domain. I created a windows security group on the dc and added myself and another user to the group. I then use this group as a login for SQL Server and add the login to the sysadmin server role. This works exactly as I would expect on the Windows Server computer (which is also the Domain Controller) regardless of which computer I use to connect to this Windows Server computer. However, when I set up the exact same login on the local sql server instance of my client laptop running windows xp pro, the I get an error message (Login failed for user MYDOMAINdgolds...) when I attempt to connect to the local instance of SQL server, even though I am able to connect to the instance on the domain controller with no problems using this same client laptop under the same user account. The only way I am able to connect locally on the laptop under this account (which does not have local admin privileges on any box, for testing purposes) is to add the user account separately as a login, rather than as part of a group. I'm curious as to why being a member of a security group that is part of the sysadmin server role does not allow me to connect to the local instance of SQL Server on this client laptop. The windows server computer is running SQL2k5 Enterprise, and the client laptop is running SQL2k5 developer. Any insight into this would be appreciated.
I am trying to connect SQL database through code but I get this error,I have spent days to solve it but unfortunately I couldn't...Here is my code in VB express(OP:windows 2000 with SP4)I am new to VB,so it makes the situation more difficult for me.
my code is:
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
Dim conn1 As SqlConnection = _
New SqlConnection("Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;" & _
"Integrated Security=SSPI;" & _
"database=deneme3_database;")
'Open connection
conn1.Open()
MessageBox.Show("Connection succeeded.")
'Close connection
conn1.Close()
MessageBox.Show("Connection closed.")
End Sub
The error message is,it is in german but it is clear I guess:)
" Die von der Anmeldung angeforderte "deneme3_database"-Datenbank kann nicht geöffnet werden. Fehler bei der Anmeldung. Fehler bei der Anmeldung für den Benutzer 'ADPLANatalay'. "
I have been struggling with this problem for a while with SQL 2005. I have never had such login problem with SQL 2000. Here is the scenario:
I have installed SQL2005 standard version on a XP Pro box and I am trying to access it from another XP Pro machine. I can access it using a SQL user name and password that I set up on the server, but I have not had luck with using Windows NT Integrated security. When I try to connect to it (e.g. by a UDL file), I get an error saying Login failed for user €˜HP-AMD64Guest€™ where €˜HP-AMD64€™ is the name of the PC running the SQL 2005. I can access the files on the machine without any problem. I do not understand why it uses €˜Guest€™ that is not what I use to log on my machine. Does anyone have any clue to offer me?
I'm developing a client-server application using Visual Basic and SQL Server 6.5 for 700 users. The application currently requires users to login to the database using their network account (via trusted connections). Each of the users takes up a maximum of 6 connections. Unfortunately, other considerations will force us to discard use of trusted connections. So it only leaves us either to create 700 user accounts on SQL Server separately from their network logins or to create one SQL Server account and everybody uses that same account to login to the database. For political reasons, the customer would prefer not to ask their support group to maintain 700 user accounts on SQL Server if it can be avoided.
My question: is there any technical limitation or other negative consequence of having 700 users login to the same account to SQL Server if SQL Server can handle that many connections (it would be 6*700 = 4200 connections) simultaneously? Are we supposed to do things like this? It seems that we don’t have better choice than this.
Dear All, I currently installed visual studio 2005. So together it als install sql server express. So then I install the sql server management studio express too. So the problem now I want to do is run asp.net pages. I want to know how to create a local account with my own password. Because now I can only login using default windows authentication so how can I create an account with for sql server authentication ? Another question is that for the server address in my asp.net page what must I write localhost or the name shown in the server name text box while logging in. Thanks.
I noticed when I restore a master database to a server other then the one which created the backup of master, SQL Server contains the following three local security groups that were defined on the source server. The problem is these groups are "local" and do not apply to the server where master was restored.
If you then backup the master database on an instance named MARKETING_PROD and restore it to MARKETING_TEST, the security folder on MARKETING _TEST will now contain the following three entries.
These entries would be invalid because no such server exists and therefor no such local groups exists. There appears to be no Microsoft documentation explaining how to handle these groups when restoring master from one server to another. My assumption is that whenever restoring master to another server you must drop these three groups and add the correct corresponding groups along with the appropriate permissions. I don't understand why SQL Server would not rebuild this information for you during a restore.
I would like to write code to delete and add a SQL Login to every User database on my development server. Whenever I restore databases to dev using production backups the SQl Server logins are invalid and I need to delete them from the user database and add them again.
I've already hard-coded a sql server job with n steps... a step for each user database to drop and add this sql user to each database. This isn't optimal since I have to add or delete a step everytime a user database is added or deleted.
Does anyone know how to write a loop or cursor that does this dynamically? I am doing something syntactically wrong related to the GO statement.
declare @db varchar(100)
declare @message varchar(3000)
DECLARE user_cursor CURSOR FOR
SELECT top 1 name
FROM master.sys.databases
where name not in
('master','tempdb','model','msdb')
OPEN user_cursor
FETCH NEXT FROM user_cursor INTO @db
WHILE @@FETCH_STATUS = 0
BEGIN
SELECT @message = 'use '+@db + '
GO'
+'DROP USER [SQLLogin.DataEntry]
CREATE USER [SQLLogin.DataEntry] FOR LOGIN [SQLLogin.DataEntry]
In my architecture I have a Domain Controller with Active Directory (DOMAIN_A), IIS 6.0 (WEBSERVER) and SqlServer 2000 (SQLDBSERVER).
The WEBSERVER has a .NET application with windows authentication. The .NET application interacts with the database server. I want to use Integrated Security to pass in the users login credentials to the database to run any database calls so that I can audit who is making what calls on the database.
The connection string I am using for this is as follows:
The problem arises after I login to the web application (I use the user DOMAIN_ASomeUser where SomeUser is a user who has permissions set up to make all of the database calls). After logging in however, when I go to a page that makes a database call I get the following error:
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Login failed for user 'DOMAIN_AWEBSERVER$'. It seems that for some reason, .NET is not passing the login name SomeUser, but instead is passing SERVERNAME$. Would anyone pls have any ideas how I can implement this. Any guide or references would be much appreciated.
Dear mems, I have a problem, and i don't khow how to resolve, pls help me:
My server is Windows XP (not domain), I work with SQL Server 2005, installed on my server, I configurate my SQL SERVER connection is "Windows Authentication mode", I add user "MyComputerguest" to MyServerSecutityLogins to accept connections from local network I have many databases: Db1, Db2, Db3...
But, I don't know to configurate my SQL Server to achive these: 1) My clients using "SQL Server Managment Studio" connect to Databases Db2, Db3... on my Server, they can expand, modify, add new all Tables, Sp, functions of Db2, Db3. 2) My clients are not allow to access Db1. 2) My clients can add new Databases Db4, Db5, Db6... in the future and they have full permission on every Database which they create without my interfere.
if you run the following script it takes access from the windows admin from getting into sql server through windows auth. The issue is that the files that are attached logging as SA after that are read only. Is there any solution? When you try and switch the file to read write sql server gives an error saying that it cant read the mdf and ldf--gives a windows access error....
USE [master] GO
IF EXISTS (SELECT * FROM sys.server_principals WHERE name = N'BUILTINUsers') EXEC sp_dropsrvrolemember [BUILTINUsers], sysadmin DENY CONNECT SQL TO [BUILTINUsers] CASCADE GO

Hi All hope you can help.I have a SQL 2k Standard Ed. SP3 server that is in mixed securitymode.I have logged into EM with the sa account.Then added a Active Directory group (i.e. DomainDBAdmins) to theSystem Administrators for that server.When I try and modify the SQL server registration in EM to use trustedauthentication instead of sa I get a connection failed. Any ideas?Thanks,
We have a SQL Server Reporting Services instance running SP2. I have attempted to add a domain group in a trusted domain to the server to enable regular users to access reports. I have added this group to the instance folder as a SYSTEM USER and home as BROWSER. I am allowing those settings to be inherited down through the folders (reports and data sources) to the reports. My test user in this report receives:
The permissions granted to user 'DOMAINuser' are insufficient for performing this operation. (log shows HTTP 500)
when the user attempts to use the URL to go directly to the report. If we try to navigate from HOME and walk the folders the user sees a blank HOME page.
I have used other groups with no problem.
Is there something I am missing in setting up the security environment? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I have two SQL Server machines - RPTPROD and DATAPROD.
I wanted to create a linked server from RPTPROD pointing to DATAPROD using Windows Authentication. Â When I tried to create this linked server, I keep getting this error
"Login failed for user 'NT AUTHORITYANNOYMOUS LOGON' (Microsoft SQL Server,Error: 18456)". Â
On the "Security" page, I chose "Be made using the login's current security context". Â I'm sysadmin on both SQL Server machines. Â
I have a scenario where I want to make a linked server query and report using windows service account credential. I can able to do link query if I RDP into the Server where linked server established using the service account and run query successfully  but local client SSMS with my credential fails connecting linked server or querying. Looks to be a sql double hoping problem if so configuration each client domain account to enable delegation will be challenging as mentioned in the following articles instead service account only might work if possible.
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
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.
CLIENT SIDE: If the query is reading from large table, (100 columns x 20000 rows) I have no problem getting results using SQL Query Analyzer on the Client side.
However, I am getting timeout problem from the client side application.
The query failed. The message from the database engine was: Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server: Timeout expired.
SERVER SIDE: I tested the same query on the server using the application. I can get the results.
ENVIRONMENT: Server machine: The Server : Windows 2003 Server SP2 Database Server : SQL Server 2000 €“ (8.00.2039 Standard Edition SP 2)

For some reason my environment doesn€™t like the outside application to connect to the server long time?
Do you have any idea how to fix this timeout problem? Do I need to configure DCOM or DTC?
I am receiving the following error when attempting to access reporting services... to sum things up real nice and tidy-
I get three login prompts - then the access denied response. It is almost as if it is unable to authenticate the user... anyway... here's the actual error response, I'd really appreciate any input/insight/resolution.

To grant ASP.NET access to a file, right-click the file in Explorer, choose "Properties" and select the Security tab. Click "Add" to add the appropriate user or group. Highlight the ASP.NET account, and check the boxes for the desired access.

I'm trying to connect to a database using a service account that we got created. The ID is an AD account and was added to the db as such. When I try to connect to the database using the account with the password I get [login failed for domainid]. The DBA mentioned that its setup to use windows auth, however, I can't connect with this service account using windows Auth, due to I'm using to connect via code.
How can I connect to the database from my code using this ID?
I have the ID and pwd in my code to connect with, does the ID have to be setup differently in the Database?
