Does anyone know what ports are required to be open (non-NT). We are placing the SQL-Server behind a UNIX firewall, and want to minimize the ports open.
If I am doing an Index Server query from SQL, such as:SELECTQ.*FROMOPENQUERY(FTIndexPM, ''SELECT path, characterization, rank, hitcountFROM SCOPE('DEEP TRAVERSAL OF .....can anyone tell me which TCP/UDP ports will be used between the SQLServer and the Index server if the Index Server is on another machine?I'm doing the query from SQL so that I can join the results with atable in the database and am not interested in doing the Index queryfrom the app server. I haven't been able to find any info on the netfor which firewall ports are used for this.
My SQL Server is a shared account at MaximumASP.com a client just deployed my .NET application on GoDaddy.com and they have all there ports blocked and my app cannot connect to the SQL Server. Using "Network Library =dbmssocn" in the connection string did not help and GoDaddy will not help. MY QUESTION IS: how can I get my .NET app to connect to the SQL Server? web service? This is the first time I have run into this problem. There seems like there has to be some way. THANKS IN ADVANCE!
I have an existing 2012 default SQL Express. It's set up on a VPS managed by a third party. I have an administrator account on this 2012 Windows server. I'm not much of a sysadmin or a DBA but I get around. ;)
I've installed a new NAMED instance on this VPS and can not connect to it with client tools (SSMS). If I remote in, I can connect this way.
What steps might a seasoned DBA expect to make when getting a new named instance ready for the world.
Assign a port? Check the port?
Open the firewall for the port?
Will this new named instance listen on a different port than the previously installed SQL Express instance?
Hi gurus, I have an application developed with VC++ 6.0 and communicating with SQL Server 2000 through DB-Library e.g. dblogin stuff. With the release of SQL Server 2005, I don't find any DB-Library, every one is talking about Native Client to access SQL Server 2005. Native Client uses OLEDB or ODBC to access database. Could someone help me, is there any DB-Library support available for SQL Server 2005.
I 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.
Hi There!I have a big application which has two parts. A back-end developed in Deplhi 7 for desktop and a front-end developed in ASP.net C#. The problem I am facing is to integrate the login between both applications. I have a database that has the USER table with the PASSWORD encrypted and I've been already developed a Class Library with all the needs of Cryptography that has been used by the ASP.net application to authenticate users. The thing is, the desktop application has to authenticate the users too with the very same cryptography method, but Dephi cannot use dotNet assemblies (?). The client of the application ask to not use a web service and I'm trying to do this cryptography on the data base.The question is: Is there any way to invoke a dotNet Class Library through a SQL Server 2000 Stored Procedure?Consider that the Dephi developers had researched some ways to use dotNet assembly inside their application with no success. They had tried to develop their own cryptography method based on the algorithm that I had said them, but the encrypted string is different. Whenever the application try to match the strings, it doesn't work.Do you have some idea guys?Thanks in Advance! Ramon Silva
I am not sure if this should go here it is a bit of a mixed bag, sorry if it's in the wrong spot.
I am interested to know what ideas people might have in relation to the best way to structure/setup up an app that can connect to either an SQL Server Express DB or a Compact 3.5 DB. I have a small app that can be networked but a lot of people wont want a networkable version so I dont want them downloading an app that is 4mb but requires a 35mb SQL Express install just to get it to attach to what amounts to a local DB.
Both the System.Data.SQLClient and System.Data.sqlce namespaces include classes that share at least some (I haven't checked them all) classes that inherit from the same base class i.e. SQLConnection and SQLCeConnection both inherit DBConnection from System.Data.Common. so I am wondering if there is a tricky way that I can reduce my overall code overhead (mainly things like if statements to check which DB connection we want) by up casting both connections and managing them as DBConnections but at this stage I cant come up with one.
An in important point with this is that I intend to write SQL statements that are compatable with both SQL Express and SQL Compact, my DV structure is sufficiently simple enough that I can put up with the odd "wordy" SQL statement in favour of trying to use stored procedures and views in Express and then not being able to use them in Compact.
What ports does SQLMail use to access MS Exchange Server?? We have SQL 7 running on a seperate non-trusted domain(within the same DMZ) from where Exchange Server exists. The only trust we want between the 2 domains is the SQLMail functionality for the DBA's and Administrators to use. I am aware that MS Exchange uses 110 port for POP3 and port 25 for SMTP. Does this apply to SQLMail as well? Thanks in advance for your support.
hi every on am searching for a file which contains information about the instance in my sql server and the ports that this instances are running on ,am sure that there is a file like this but i cant find it please if u know it answer me ,,, and thanks alot for ur time//
Hello,How to determine, which ports do MS SQL Server instances listen to?I want to conect to sql server using PHP and I need to know exact portnumber. I suspect that my SQL (msde) server instances don't listen ondefault 1433 :]--Stefan
I'll have about 5 db's from an instance(server1instance1) mirrored to another server(server2/instance1). Do all of these db's have to have endpoints configured with different ports? I hope I'm clear on my question. Do I have to create a different endpoint for every db or can use the same endpoint? Thank you
Using SQL Configuration Manager, i have set my local instance to use TCP Dynamic Ports by setting the value under IPAll to be 0 (the value TCP Port is blank). However, when i start up the server this value gets set to a specific port. ie Before startup TCP Dynamic Ports = 0, After startup TCP Dynamic Ports = 2832. This value persists throughout SQL Server restarts.
Is this behaviour correct as I would have expected this value to stay 0?
I am using SQL Standard, SP2. SQL Browser is running.
I have downloaded Microsoft Enterprise Library 2005 from microsoft.com. I am trying implement Data Access Layer with visual studio 2003. I am able to access some functions of the DAL but I am not able to establish connection with SQL Server 2000.
Will anyone tell me the solution for the above issue.
I have two instances of SQl 2005 running on a server. One I'm going to allow outside remote access to. But I don't want to do it on the default port. though I have it allowing remote and that seems to be working. I can seem to find where to change the default listening port.
and I scimmed the help and topics I saw. But didn't see one relevant to this question.
When a ReportViewer control is used to access a report on a remote SQL Server database, on what ports does the communcation occur? Does the control communicate on on the SQL Server ports of 1433 and 1434 or does it communcate as a web service on port 80 (or 443 for HTPPS)?
I am new to the forum and would like to have a question answered. I want to to install Sql Server Express with advanced services but also want to have IIS installed as well. My question is, how do I install IIS without it opening Port 45? When I installed it, it would not let me finish installation without letting it act as a server. Is there any work around to solve this problem that any of you have managed to use?
With SSL, is all traffic from the client to the database on port 443 ? Or are other ports needed ?
With Windows Certificate Management Snap-in, a request for a certificate assumes that there is a local Certificate Authority. I don't have one and it is my understanding that I should buy a third party certificate to avoid a man in the middle attack. With IIS there is a certificate request process. Is there something similar I should use with SQL ?
When multiple instances of SQL 2005 are installed on a cluster or standalone server, is it best to have each instance configured to listen on a different port or will one port for all do? We don't use port 1433 and the port we do use is blocked at the firewall. I'd like to standardize on one port for all instances but I'm not sure of the ramifications. Any thoughts?
Note: but even the connection string "serverBserverA,2040" also connects to Instance "serverB", when i try to connect from SSMS, In SSMS it shows the wrong instance name like, "serverBserverB", but it actually connects to Instance "serverA"
i.what is the reason behind this? ii.Is there any way to avoid this connection, by performing server property changes, if any ?
We have an internal sql 2000 server that acts as the database backend for our Internet presence. I believe that the sql server can be accessed because of a firewall "exception" (?) that allows the external web server to talk to the sql server using a specific IP address and port (namely that of the sql server.)
Now we need to install a sql 2005 instance on the same box which needs to act as an Internet backend. The sql browser service will resolve all client requests to the default or named instance. But I read that the sql browser service assigns a "dynamic" port to the Instance! If that is the case, it's unlikely that, unless the firewall has all ports open for outgoing traffic, that the sql instance will be able to communicate with the web server.
My conclusion:
Leave the default instance (sql 2000) port at its current value; assign the named instance an unused port; Make sure the sql browser is running on the box! Tell the firewall guys to make an exception for the new port.
I am using SQL Server Encryption functions to encrpt the data.I also use that column in my search criteria. While seaching fro that binary column it is really slow. Its doing index scan on the table. Following are the steps i follow:-
I encrupt the actual value & then search it in the encrypted column in the database.
Hello guys. Here's the scenario. I'm opened to any suggestions. We have thousands of users with laptops running Windows XP SP2. The users login as the Admin of the machine. I know, I know, very bad practice and I totally agree with you. For whatever reason that part has to remained unchanged. In the Laptop we will install an application that will need to work offline so the application will maintain the data using SQL Server 2005 Express. We need to encrypt the whole DB, meaning we need to encrypt the Data File(s) + the Log File(s).
Requirements: 1. We need Stored Procedures (SQL Server 2005 Compact is out of the question). 2. The encryption has to be transparent to the client and Stored Procedures (meaning no column nor table encryption) 3. Whatever method used has to be able to work around the fact the user running is an admin (Windows EFS is out of the question)
Does SQL Server 2005 Standard allow whole DB encryption? How about SQL Express?
We found NetLib Encryptionizer which is exactly what we want, but we do not want to limit our options so we are still looking for other posiblities.

Historically I've always written a VB script to copy a file from a sharepoint library. I don't like this method because I have to input a username & password in the script and maintain a config file.
Yesterday I was playing around with using a file system task. The sharepoint file has a UNC path so why not? I created a simple test package with a single file system task that copies the sharepoint file (addressed via UNC) to another network location. Package runs fine locally.
I try running on our utility server but am getting a "The file name [SHAREPOINT UNC PATH] specified in the connection was not valid" error. Package is running with a proxy on the server and the proxy account has the same permissions to the sharepoint site (so far as I can tell) as me.
