After I login into the Reports Server (<servername>/Reports1/Pages/UILogon.aspx?) the Home page is blank ( accpet for links to Home |MySubscriptions | Help in the upper right corner). Please read on before thinking you know the answer. I am using Reporting Services with Forms Authentication with a custom security extension. In the LogonUser methothd I validate the user and return True if the user is good. Should I be doing anything else in this method or any of the other methods in my custom extension? I'm asking because, I can use Sql Server Management Studio to login into the Reporting Server, view any folders such as the Data Sources or Models folder, but can't make any changes. In the Users table in the ReportServer database the user I'm logging in with has a UserType of 0 and AuthType of 3. I've tride changing these to match the BUILTINAdministrators user but still no luck. Also, I can not login as the BUILTINAdministrators because that user would not be in our database. Any help with this is appreciated. Thanks.
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.
Does anyone know the best way to set up NT security. It seems a little confusing as to how to set up NT groups and assign permissions (where do the roles come into it?).
Hi I just deploy a report model and want use report builder to create ad-hoc using this report model. I want some entitis and attributes are not visiable for some user, so I config the model item security for this model. But no matter which user I use to login the report server, I always can access all the entities. Even I delete all the groups and users in "Permissions" property of the model, I still can access this model through report builder. All the user I used to test are local user of server with report service, my server is SQL Server 2005+SP2.
I am having a little trouble with my SRS installation. I have a fresh-out of the box server running Win 2003. I installed SQL & SRS on it. I have successfully deployed my report project and can run reports, etc.
The problem is, even when logged in on the console as the local admin, I can't seem to perform the usual administrative functions on the report server- simple things like hide items in list view. I have no menu options for any of the security stuff, either. I though that the local admin was able to do these things by default. I have a feeling that this has something to do with active directory & role membership? It is like the administrator only has guest privledges.
When I connect to the report server from management studio, I can see the roles but no information about users, no options ot add users to the roles, either. My goal is to simply add a user (Administrator) to the proper role to be able to configure the report server environment.
For what it is worth, this box is simply set up in my home office, no domain, etc. Please be gentle, I am mainly a SQL geek, very little knowledge of Server OS & Windows security.
I have just reciently installed and started upgrading the last beta code to this beta and am having a problem conecting to my sqlinstance with the WebSite Configuration Tool.
I'm attempting to setup the defaco MS security for membership and roles, using a newly created database under SQL 2005 (not express). I created the database using the aspnet_regsql.exe utility and that worked fine. I created my provider connection string logging in as 'sa' wit the proper password. All that seemed to work okay too. However when I attempt to change any of the settings like setting the authentication type or enabling roles, I get the follwing error message: The following message may help in diagnosing the problem: Attempted to perform an unauthorized operation. at System.Security.AccessControl.Win32.SetSecurityInfo(ResourceType type, String name, SafeHandle handle, SecurityInfos securityInformation, SecurityIdentifier owner, SecurityIdentifier group, GenericAcl sacl, GenericAcl dacl) at System.Security.AccessControl.NativeObjectSecurity.Persist(String name, SafeHandle handle, AccessControlSections includeSections, Object exceptionContext) at System.Security.AccessControl.NativeObjectSecurity.Persist(String name, AccessControlSections includeSections) at System.Security.AccessControl.FileSystemSecurity.Persist(String fullPath) at System.IO.File.SetAccessControl(String path, FileSecurity fileSecurity) at System.Configuration.Internal.WriteFileContext.DuplicateTemplateAttributes(String source, String destination) at System.Configuration.Internal.WriteFileContext.DuplicateFileAttributes(String source, String destination) at System.Configuration.Internal.WriteFileContext.Complete(String filename, Boolean success) at System.Configuration.Internal.InternalConfigHost.StaticWriteCompleted(String streamName, Boolean success, Object writeContext, Boolean assertPermissions) at System.Configuration.Internal.InternalConfigHost.System.Configuration.Internal.IInternalConfigHost.WriteCompleted(String streamName, Boolean success, Object writeContext, Boolean assertPermissions) at System.Configuration.Internal.InternalConfigHost.System.Configuration.Internal.IInternalConfigHost.WriteCompleted(String streamName, Boolean success, Object writeContext) at System.Configuration.Internal.DelegatingConfigHost.WriteCompleted(String streamName, Boolean success, Object writeContext) at System.Configuration.UpdateConfigHost.WriteCompleted(String streamName, Boolean success, Object writeContext) at System.Configuration.MgmtConfigurationRecord.SaveAs(String filename, ConfigurationSaveMode saveMode, Boolean forceUpdateAll) at System.Configuration.Configuration.SaveAsImpl(String filename, ConfigurationSaveMode saveMode, Boolean forceSaveAll) at System.Configuration.Configuration.Save(ConfigurationSaveMode saveMode) at System.Web.Administration.WebAdminPage.SaveConfig(Configuration config) at ASP.security_setupauthentication_aspx.UpdateAndReturnToPreviousPage(Object sender, EventArgs e) at System.Web.UI.WebControls.Button.OnClick(EventArgs e) at System.Web.UI.WebControls.Button.RaisePostBackEvent(String eventArgument) at System.Web.UI.WebControls.Button.System.Web.UI.IPostBackEventHandler.RaisePostBackEvent(String eventArgument) at System.Web.UI.Page.RaisePostBackEvent(IPostBackEventHandler sourceControl, String eventArgument) at System.Web.UI.Page.RaisePostBackEvent(NameValueCollection postData) at System.Web.UI.Page.ProcessRequestMain(Boolean includeStagesBeforeAsyncPoint, Boolean includeStagesAfterAsyncPoint)Anyone have any clue why this is happening? Do I need to add something to the database as far as users/roles go? I figured 'sa' would have free roam, but something permission-wise just isn't jiving.
I work on test SSRS setup and trying to give one user enough rights so she can download RDLs from server, but no matter what I do on Folder leverl, on report level her security are still only as a <Browser>. Structure of our Server is:
Home/NewReports/Misc/Report01.
I'm checking those in <Folder Settings>/<Security> where this user is OK (Browser, Content Manager, Publisher, Report Builder).
So she looks OK in all folders Home/NewReports/Misc, but on report level she still only a browser.
Our db team tried everything on SSRS server working with Site settings and Folder option, how to make that report inherit security ?
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...
Hi, I would like to demonstrate mining temporary models in an ASP.NET application.
Creating, trainning, predicating actions are all witten at C# codes as follows:
Code Snippet
using (AdomdCommand cmd = new AdomdCommand()) { // Build temporary mining model cmd.Connection = asConn; cmd.CommandText = "CREATE SESSION MINING MODEL " + modelName + " (" + "HCVS_MemberId Text KEY," + "HCVS_MeasureDate DATE KEY TIME, " + "SysPressure LONG CONTINUOUS PREDICT, " + "DiaPressure LONG CONTINUOUS PREDICT," + "Pluse LONG CONTINUOUS PREDICT" + ") " + "USING Microsoft_Time_Series(Missing_Value_Substitution='Mean' ) "; // Periodicity_Hint = '{12}' cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
// Train Data cmd.CommandText = "INSERT INTO " + modelName + " (HCVS_MemberId, HCVS_MeasureDate, SysPressure, DiaPressure, Pluse) " + "OPENQUERY([Healthcare], " + " 'SELECT HCVS_MemberId, HCVS_MeasureDate, SysPressure,DiaPressure,Pluse" + " FROM v_VitalSignForecast WHERE HCVS_MemberId=''" + id + "'' AND HCVS_MeasureDate>=''" + from.ToShortDateString() + "'' AND HCVS_MeasureDate<=''" + to.ToShortDateString() +"'' ')";
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery(); // Predict upon the Train Data. In addition, the standard deviation of each predicated value is retrieved cmd.CommandText = "SELECT FLATTENED " + "( SELECT *, " + " SysPressure + PredictStdev(SysPressure) AS [SysPressure_PlusStdev], " + " SysPressure - PredictStdev(SysPressure) AS [SysPressure_MinusStdev] " + "FROM PredictTimeSeries(SysPressure, " + fDays + ") AS SysTable " + ") " + "FROM " + modelName ;
AdomdDataAdapter adapter = new AdomdDataAdapter(cmd);
DataSet sysDS = new DataSet(); adapter.Fill(sysDS); The problem is that I do not know how to configure my Analysis Service Server to let ASP.NET account can utilize it. And ASP.NET account in trun impersonates the account who is authorized to use Healthcare DB in the Openquery. Please give a help. Thanks a lot.
I have implemented User-defined Functions in SQL Server 2005 with Managed Code. Inside Vistual Studio Project for SQL Server, there are three different levels of security, which are SAFE, EXTERNAL_ACCESS and UNSAFE. When I set EXTERNAL_ACCESS permission and try to send http web request using HttpWebRequest and HttpWebResponse classes in the .NET Framework, it throws me error message, but If I set to UNSAFE, it works fine. For that I have two Questions.
1) how to run my code with EXTERNAL_ACCESS permission ? 2) If I set UNSAFE permission, is it dangerous for any security issue ?
Looking forward to some help from you guys. Thanks in advance.
Is there any possibility to schedule SQL job execution as Windows Security Group? I need to run powershell script through SQL job with one of this group member's permissions.Â
I 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.
I want to use an Active Directory security group that is a Distribution List for a new role assignment for an existing report. Can someone tell me if this is possible? I get an error each time I try:
The user or group name <DLName> is not recognized. (rsUnknownUserName)"
I am looking for a way to log all security related events for SQL in Windows Security Log. I am trying to use SCOM for monitoring SQL and I am looking at ways to generate alerts in my SCOM Console for specific events in SQL e.g. A table is deleted, user is modified, deleted, etc. Is this possible and if yes how do I achieve the same?
In an environment where there are many initaitors speaking to a central target with frowarders in between, from what i can understand this best policy is to disable encryption on the endpoints, since dialog encryption will be enforced this is all that is really required, is this correct.
If the endpoints used encryption the message would need to be encrypted and decrypted at each forwarder resulting in slower perfromance, where as dialog encryption would only encrypt at the sender and decrypt at the target, so is this the best way to go?
Secondly is it best practice to open a dialog initally and send messages over this dialog for years never ending the conversation? This way the services only have to authenticate eachother once, if there are no reboots etc that is of course.
I would think performance wise sending each message and ending the conversation each time is a much greater overhead ? So would it be best practice to keep dialogs open and keep sending messages ?
Initally when i was learning service broker i thought that one must send a message and end the dialog until the next message, but i think the other way is the best option ?
I'm designing a distributed application where I will have SQL Server 2005 distributed databases replicating data to my central hub which is again a SQL Server 2005 database using SQL Service Broker. Data will be sent from the central hub to the distributed sites and vice versa. I need to authenticate the communication and also secure the communication by encrypting the messages. Which security shall I use? Where do I configure the type of security being used? What is the difference between transport security Vs dialogue security - Full security model?
Can anybody tell me the advantage and disadvantage to use NT security for SQL Server 7.0? For a corporation with 400 users, what is your recommendation for the SQL Server security management. Thanks.
What's the better security to use? Currently I'm always registering using the Windows authentication. When I'm trying to register using SQL authentication I always get "Login failed for user 'sa'" error....
In my ASP.NET app, I'm executing a stored procedure via a SQLCommand the searches a customer database. I believe the default timeout is 90 seconds. I'm curious of what happens to the SQL Server Stored Procedure after timing out from the ASP.NET application. Does it timeout at the same time or do you have to set up a value in SQL Server?
Hello, I am a SQL rookie. I have followed the tutorial and installed MSDN as it says. However, I am unable to create a database with WebMatrix. I keep getting an error that reads "SQL Server does not exist or access denied. ConnectionOpen (Connect())."
When I loaded the SQL, everything seemed to go well. I got all of the results that the tutorial said I should.
Please advise on my next steps. Thank you in advance.
I'm trying to set up a new job to update a field in the table, I've managed to get the select syntax to work, but when I added an IF statement and Update syntax it didn't like it and the following error was shown:-
Server: Msg 156, Level 15, State 1, Line 9 Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'BEGIN'.
This is the syntax I'm trying to use for the job:-
USE EmployerEngagement
IF (SELECT On_Stop FROM tblEmployer LEFT OUTER JOIN tblWP_Details ON tblEmployer.Emp_ID = tblWP_Details.Emp_ID LEFT OUTER JOIN tblVetting ON tblWP_Details.Record_ID = tblVetting.Record_ID WHERE tblEmployer.On_Stop = 0 AND tblVetting.Next_Vett_Date <= GETDATE()) BEGIN UPDATE tblEmployer SET On_Stop = 1 END
Basically I just want to change the On_Stop value from 0 to 1 if the Next_Vett_Date is before or on todays date.
