Microsoft Security Patches And SQL Server
Apr 23, 2008I've just taken over the role of SQL Server DBA for my organization. I've been asked to go over the list of Microsoft patches that will be installed on our SQL Server boxes to see if there are any issues.
As of now, I'm going to Microsoft's site and reading up on the patches. But, they don't have any info on where there are any negative effects on SQL Server or other Microsoft products.
The patches are being installed on test servers and I plan on running a few jobs to test for any issues.
Does anyone know of any other resources I could check?
Thanks,

SQL Server Express Security Patches
Sep 14, 2007Please how are security patches for SQL Server Express 2005 made available (e.g., as seperate distributions or bundled into other Microsoft patch distribution mechanisms)? Are there specific procedures that I need to put in place to ensure that SQL Server Express 2005 gets patched on end user machines?

Thanks.
SQL Server 2000 Security
Mar 18, 2002I have what may be an elementary question; any help that anyone can provide would be greatly appreciated.
Assumptions:
1.) Running SQL Server 2000 on Windows 2000
2.) Using only Windows Authentication
3.) Have 2 databases
4.) I have a group of users that I need different
Access to each database.
a.) This group needs only "select" privileges to
the tables and views in "database 1"
b.) This same group needs DBA privileges
(Add, Remove, and modify Tables, Views, etc.)
to "database 2"
What would be the best, most efficient way to accomplish this? These users are currently a members of a Windows group which has only "select" privileges to the tables and views in "database 1".
DTC && SQL Server 2000 Security
Jun 8, 2006Perhaps someone can answer this question. I was given a document from a Microsoft consultant and setting up a secure SQL Server 2000 server for my company. This document is being used to setup standards for our enterprise implementation of SQL Servers.
In the document, it has a procedure of disabling the MSDTC service stating that, "the DTC can be used by COM+ applications to manage transactions across multiple database servers." But it really doesn't suffieniently state why this is a good security practice. Can anyone out there tell me why this is a good idea.
Background: We use the Standard Edition, and currently have no distributed servers out there, nor do we have replication. A side note, just recently we have been asked to install a replicated server for fail-over capability. Will disabling the DTC service hinder us?

SQL Server 2000 Database To SQL Server 2005 Standard Security Issue
Jan 12, 2006We have experienced an issue with back backup / restore of a database originating from SQL Server 2000 to SQL Server 2003.
We have the following setup:
SQL Server 2000
- DatabaseA
- asdfUser (SQL User)
- asdfUser is (dbowner) of DatabaseA
- DatabaseB
- asdfUser (SQL User)
- asdfUser is (dbowner) of DatabaseB
SQL Server 2005 Standard
-asdfUser is NOT Setup as a user yet.
-We restore DatabaseA and DatabaseB to the SQL Server 2005 Standard. The databases are restored with the security permissions of asdfUser being the DB Owner of DatabaseA and DatabaseB.
-We create a new SQL user named asdfUser on the SQL Server 2005 box. We then try to add the UserMapping of DBOWNER for the DatabaseA and DatabaseB. We receive an error message stating that the asdfUser already have permissions to the databases. We proceed with the user creation without those permissions.
-We proceed to the login properties of the asdfuser and view their UserMappings. The asdfUser does not have access to DatabaseA or DatabaseB. We then add the UserMapping of DBOWNER to both DatabaseA and DatabaseB. We Try to select OK and we receive an error message that states that the user already has those permissions.
-When we query the UserID's of the asdfUser that is in the database and the UserID of the asdfUser that is created, they are two different values.
I assume this is a bug... any word on a fix?

MS HotFixes/patches Possibly Stunting DB Activity For Certain Amounts Of Data?
Jun 14, 2004I’m wondering if anyone can shed light on a problem I’ve noticed that's really made for a major thorn in my side. I recently had a Microsoft patch installed on my server, and now for some reason, trying to run INSERT or UPDATE queries against the SQL 2000 database are severely limited. I constantly get the error:
“Error: A severe error occurred on the current command. The results, if any, should be discarded.�
My Event Logs also return the following:
"Invalid buffer received from client."
I think I’ve isolated the problem to be that I can’t add new or modify existing records that try using a field which is of type TEXT, but now can’t be longer than 4,000 characters, else the error fires. This is really weird, as I’ve used the same ASP.NET script to call a stored procedure to INSERT/UPDATE records thousands of times before with 100% success.
I have a feeling this might have something to do with the patch, but has anyone come across this problem specifically, or know for sure which patch(es) cause it? Why all of a sudden would a TEXT field be so limited in capacity?

Quick Question About Security And MS SQL 2000
Oct 20, 2004OK, we have a couple of MS SQL 2000 servers running in a Win2k AD domain.
Both machines are using mixed mode security, the issue appears to be this.
If I go into AD and change a groups name that has been granted access to
the SQL server, it doesn't seem to pick up on the name change.
I also can't add the new name to the SQL server, because of a conflict of a
SID.
So how do I get the MS SQL server to refresh the names of the native NT
groups that have been granted access, then have the names changed ??
Help With Java Connection To MS SQL 2000 With Windows Integrated Security

When I installed it on my laptop it did not ask me for auser name and password. After install when I re-started my machine Isee the server started up with a green light. Now when I connect to theserver from VS.NET it works fine. This is because VS uses windowsintegrated security.

View 9 Replies View RelatedSSRS -- Security Filter And Model Item Security Setting
Jul 31, 2007
Hi,
I have posted this issue for a week, haven't got any reply yet, I posted it again and desperately need your help.
The article http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms365343.aspx says:
Model Item Security can be set for differnt security filters, but when I use SQL Server Management Studio to set Model Item Security, it seems "Permissions" property surpass "Model Item Security" property. -- My report server is using Custom Authentication.
For example, in "Permissions" property of the model, if I checked "Use these roles for each group or user account" without setting any user or group, no matter what users I added to "Model Item Security" with "Secure individual model items independently for this model" checked, NO one user can see the model on report manager and report builder;
in above situation, if I added "user1" and gave role such as "Browser" role to "user1" in "Permissions" property, if I checked "Secure individual model items independently for this model" in "Model Item Security" property, even I did NOT grant "user1" to root model and any entities under the model, the "user1" is able to access the model and all entities in report builder.
My question is on the same report model, how to set "AdminFilter" (empty security filter) for administrator permissions and set "GeneralFilter" (filtered on UserID) for general user based on their UserID?
The article also says:
"Security filters are always applied, even for users who have Content Manager or Administrator permissions to the model. To allow administrators or other users to see all rows of an entity on which row-level security is defined, you can create an empty security filter (which always returns True) and then use the filter to grant those users access to all the rows."
So I defined 2 filters "GeneralFilter" and "AdminFilter" for "Staff" entity for my report model "SSRSModel", I expect after I deployed the report model, the administrator users use report builder to build reports with all rows available, and the non-admin users can only see rows based on their UserID.
I can only get one result at a time but not both:
either the rows are filtered or not filtered at all, no matter how I set the "SecurityFilter" for the entity: I tried setting both "AdminFilter" and "GeneralFilter" for SecurityFilter at the same time, combination of "DefaultSecurityFilter" and "SecurityFilter", or one at a time.
Your help is highly appreciated!

View 4 Replies View RelatedSetup Of Security / Integrated Win Security On Vista
Jul 6, 2007I have Sql Server Express installed on Vista (service pack 2)
I have Visual Studio 2005 with an application that I'm trying to access it with within a WCF service.
The login ID of the service is added to the database.
The database has remote access turned on.
The ID is granted access to all databases within the server.
The thread is being set with WindowsProvider and the services set their thread to WindowsProvider.
The dataserver is set with using Windows Authentication for security.
When I open my connection to the database, though, it reports the typically useless message that the connection is not allowed and that the server may not allow remote connections.
How to I get past this? I've done everything right.
