Hey guys. I'll have an active/active cluster and seperate accounts for SQL Services and Cluster service. The question is what rights should the cluster account have in SQL if I've removed the 'builtin admins' from SQL? Thank you
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?
Hello , everybody
Is possible to set up server role to NT user in order to backup ONLY
any databases on server (nothing alse )
Now I am specifying this user as backup operator to each database
This NT account is domain account used to run Backup.exe software
Thank you
I'm creating one of my first asp.net pages, and it accesses an MS SQL database.It runs fine locally, but if you go to it remotely through a web browser, you get an exception saying that the database login failed for user ASPNET.My brother told me to do the following in SQL Server Managment studio. It seems I don't have that program installed, so I did it from the SQL command prompt.CREATE LOGIN [bigblueASPNET] FROM WINDOWSuse AdventureWorkscreate user [bigblueASPNET](Where "bigblue" is the computer name and "AdventureWorks" is the database my asp.net web page reads from).This only partially fixed the problem - now when you open the page remotely and try to access the DB I get an error message saying that permission to use the SELECT command is denied.I searched on these forums, and found this:http://forums.asp.net/69166/ShowPost.aspxFor future reference, let's call what my brother told me "Method 1" and what the previous poster did as "Method 2."I haven't tried method 2 because I don't know exactly what I am giving ASPNET permission to do. Does method 2 enable ASPNET to do anything to any database? It seems method 1 is more secure, as from the commands I could already tell it only has permission to access AdventureWorks.So, I'd prefer to use method 1. Can anyone tell me what further commands I can use to give ASPNET permission to do specific actions?If I can't figure out method 1 and have to do method 2, how can I undo what I did in method 1?Thanks!

I've given it execute permissions to all sp's I've given it reference permissions to the symmetric key. And I gave it reference permissions on the certificate. At this point, it can't see the certificate. If I give control permission to the account for the certificate, it works perfect. Is it necessary to do that or am I missing something. Our security is based on symmetric key and certificates...

After SQL Server 2005 Database Engine is installed by domain administrator, how to give permissions to a regular domain user so that user can control SQL Server Database service?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI just set up a SQL 2005 Server about a month ago that we will be moving all of our scattered DBs onto. I basically set it up with the default settings and didn't touch anything special, until I tried to install Microsoft System Center Essentials 2007 in our environment. I had problems getting it to use our SQL server, and a forum post told me to change all of the service accounts for SQL to use the LocalSystem login. So here are my service accounts:
SQL Server Integration Services
- NT AUTHORITYNetworkService
SQL Server FullText Search (MSSQLSERVER)
- LocalSystem
SQL Server (MSSQLSERVER)
- LocalSystem
SQL Server Analysis Services (MSSQLSERVER)
- LocalSystem
SQL Server Reporting Services (MSSQLSERVER)

SQL Server Browser

SQL Server Agent (MSSQLSERVER)

So Sandisk makes this software called CMC. It's for controlling their enterprise USB drives. And their software won't install. It errors out saying that it couldn't drop the database on our SQL server (but it doesn't exist). If I make an empty DB by the same name, it sees it, and then errors out anyway. I am using the SA login for testing (I was using a purposed SQL account before) so I don't think it's a rights issue. Sandisk says it should work, and they suggested I use SQL server express. But we run VMs, and running SQL server in another VM is going to use more of our memory pool. Plus we want centralized backups and all that.
Do my service account logins have anything to do with it? Can someone tell me what these should be set to by default so I can change them back?
Here's a trace I did when I tried to install the software:
-- network protocol: TCP/IP
set quoted_identifier on

Hi,
I want to use a domain user account not belonging to local admin or domain admin groups in SQL 2000/2005 Enterprise edition. This is what I've done so far..
On the machine that is the Domain Controller:
- installed SQL 2005 as a domain admin
- created a domain user account using Active Directory Users and Computers. This user is only
"Member of" domain users; not any Administrators group.
- added this user to SQL Server Management Studio->Logins and in Server Roles assigned
sysadmin role.
Question 1: Do I need to give any additional permissions to this user to work with SQL?
Question 2: How can I test this user for basic SQL operations like database creation? Can I use Osql?
Question 3: Can I use this user account to login to my domain controller using remote desktop? I tried adding this user to remote users, but in vain.
Thanks!
Im having trouble getting xp_cmdshell to work after we changed the service account for our sql server. It was working perfectly before - so i know that execute permissions have been granted, and that we have a credential set up properly.
I have read that I need to ensure the service account has permissions to 'act as opertaing system' and 'replace a process level token'. I have granted these rights in the local security policy as well.
However, I still get :
A call to 'CreateProcessAsUser' failed with error code: '1314'.
Do I need to restart the service? Or the whole server? Or have I missed something else?
Any help will be much appreciated.
Hi,
If we were to assign permissions to a backup agent such as Backup Exec to backup the databases on the SQL server, what role would give the least amount but sufficient permissions to perform the backup? I know domain admin would make the agent a local admin and therefore allow it to back up the database but is there a role available to allow backup only?
Please note that I'm referring to a domain account used by Backup Exec to directly backup the databases rather than sql server agent.
Thanks.
We are trying to configure registry settings to allow sql server service to run on a service account in SQL Server 2005. The registry has changed quite a bit from SQL 2000, and we are missing a setting in the software keys that causes sql server service not to start. If we apply permissions to all of HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE, then the service starts, however company security policies do not allow this. Are there any specific keys we should look at, other than the obvious Microsoft/Microsoft SQL Server and Microsoft/MSSQL keys, in which we have already granted permissions to the service account?
Thanks,
Dave
We have a N+1 SQL 2005 x65 SP2 + 3159 cluster which was running fine until the service account which runs Windows cluster and the SQL services was removed as a login from SQL. This was a new setup so the only SQL accounts are (SA) as SA, Windows Domain GROUP's which one group is configured as SA and the cluster account is added to this group. I cannot start SQL service on the cluster now. I've tried logging into one node as the service account which is member of a AD group which has SA rights to SQL as well as my personal account. If anyone knows a way ot fix this without reinstalling I'd appreciate your help.

Re: SQL Server 2005
Does the xp_cmdshell proxy account need admin-level permissions on the server?
The reason I ask this is because I keep getting "Access is Denied" errors when trying to run this command as a non-admin:
master..xp_cmdshell dtexec 'some package'
The 'some package' has an "execute process task" which calls a batch file on the server.
If the proxy account is NOT a local admin, the "execute process tasks" fails with an "Access is Denied" error.
If the proxy account is a local admin, it executes fine.
We have given "Everyone" FULL CONTROL of all the folders that are affected by the batch file, and it still does not work.
I am out of ideas at this point. It just does not work unless it's an admin.
Are we missing something here?
My SQL Server 2005 runs on a local account. Is it neccesary to assign this login in SQL to a System Administrator role?
And is there any difference in SQL Server 2000?
thanks

If you were to do a fresh install it would set permissions on the disk so everything just works.
Now when changing the service account (e.g. to a domain user) use the configuration manager, does it do the same magic (possibly sans if the database data/log files are on another disk)? Or do you need to trawl through the dozens of folders and assign rights manually?
During install of SQL Server 2005, we can of course use a domain account or the built-in system account for running the services. I lean toward domain for obvious reaons but would like to know a +/- to each option and why I'd choose one over the other and what consequences or limitations one may encounter if I choose one over the other.

I have been running a script in SQL Server 2000 as sa also as a Active Directory user who has administrator rights (I tested both approaches SQL Server then Windows Authentication) in Query Analyser which grants execute rights to the stored procedures within the database instance and Query Analyser does not give any errors when I run the script. I have made sure that each transaction has a go after it. I then return to Enterprise Manager, check the rights (I apply them to roles so that when we create another SQL Server user we just grant him/her rights to the role) and discover that the role has not been granted the rights. I seems to be occurring only with 2 of the procedures. Is there a known bug that might be causing this?
yours sincerely

Hi all, i hope you can help me.
Basically a dts package has been setup that pulls in data from another companies server, this data requires to be on-demand i.e individual users can pull in updates of the data when they require it.
I am using xp_cmdshell and dtsrun to pull in the data. This obviouly works fine for me as i am a member of sysadmin.
Books online quotes " SQL Server Agent proxy accounts allow SQL Server users who do not belong to the sysadmin fixed server role to execute xp_cmdshell"
So i went to the SQL Server Agent Properties 'Job System' tab and unchecked 'Non-sysadmin job step proxy account' and entered a proxy account.
The proxy account has been setup as a Windows user with local administrator privilages and even a member of the sysadmin server role - just in case.
Now when i log onto the db with my test account - a non-sysadmin - and attempt to run the stored proc to import the data i recieved the message 'EXECUTE permission denied on object 'xp_cmdshell', database 'master', owner 'dbo' '
hmm... so basically i have either misunderstood BoL or there is something not quite right in my setup.
I have search the net for a few days now and yet i can find no solution.
Can anyone help?
Hi there,BOL notes that in order for replication agents to run properly, theSQLServerAgent must run as a domain account which has privledges to loginto the other machines involved in replication (under "SecurityConsiderations" and elsewhere). This makes sense; however, I waswondering if there were any repercussions to using duplicate localaccounts to establish replication where a domain was not available.Anotherwords, create a local windows account "johndoe" on both machines(with the same password), grant that account access to SQL Server onboth machines, and then have SQL Server Agent run as "johndoe" on bothmachines. I do not feel this is an ideal solution but I havecircumstances under which I may not have a domain available; mypreliminary tests seem to work.Also, are there any similar considerations regarding the MSSQLSERVERservice, or can I always leave that as local system?Dave
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a situation that I have discovered in our QA database that I need to resolve. When I looked at the Activity Monitor for our server, I discovered that a process is running under a domain user account for one of our .Net applications. The problem is that that domain user account has not been created as a SQL login account on the server. I am trying to figure out how someone can log in to the database server with a domain user account that has not been added to SQL Server as a login account.
Does anyone have any insight on this? I don't like the idea of someone being able to create domain account that can access the database without me granting them specific access.
