Admin Or Other Role
Mar 22, 2007I have one other question. How do you define roles? What role(s) are required to fully administer SQL Server? What role(s) are required to fully administer a single database in SQL Server?
thanks,

I want to set up a database role so that users can use sp_readerrorlog through SSMS. It does a check on membership in the securityadmin role.
I have tested it and can see you can grant execute on xp_readerrorlog but the SSMS GUI uses sp_readerrorlog.
I thought I could create a user/certificate and add the signature to sp_readerrorlog but it's not permitted (likely because it's not a normal database object).
So the other solution is to add the users to the securityadmin role but then explicitly deny alter any login (best done with a custom server role in 2012+ but otherwise just manually in 2008). I tested this out and it works, I'm not able to alter any logins or increase my own permissions, I also did a check of what's reported from fn_my_permissions(null, null) and it shows minimal permissions like I'd expect.
I have more than 3000 Active Directory Users, I have created Role Level Security on one table by using Suser_name(), Now all the active directory users need to connect sql server and access the database role object. How can I achieve that without Using .net?
I am able to add all active directory users to sql server in one go, but I am also trying to achieve same time to map with database role as well? Is it possible ?
Sorry if this is a simple question, I've not seen any similar posts.
I'm just finished installed SQL 2005 on Vista Business edition (first time for both). I subsequently installed SP2 for 2005.
Upon completing the SP2 installation, the SQL Server Surface Area Configuration manager opened asking me to grant admin rights to the account I used to install the software. The account I used is the local admin account on the machine (only account on the machine as this is my dev box) .
Nothing shows in the two boxes below on this dialog, "Available Privelages" is blank and "Privelages granted is blank".
In addition, if I go to SQL Server Configuration Manager, and click on SQL Server 2005 Services, nothing shows in the right pain. It's as if the software installed, and yet no instance of the database exists or is running.
My thought was that the admin account I used to install the software doesn't have sufficient privelages to to start the SQL Server or SQLBrowser. So I went to computer management, Local Users and groups (machine isn't on a network yet), and made sure this same account is part of the administrators group.
Any ideas on how I should solve this?
Ive been reading over the documentation and some stuff online, but I still dont really understand what the difference is and when you would use one vs the other. Can someone put it in simple terms for this dummy (me) ?
thanks
In sql server 2000, I created some custom database roles called ProjectLeader and Developer. I would make these roles a member in the fixed database roles so that I would only have to add the user to the ProjectLeader or Developer role once and they would presto-magico have the security I wanted them to have with no unecessary mouse clicking. I'm not sure how to repeat this process in 2005? Management Studio doesn't seem to allow you to add a role as a member in another role. Is there a work around or solution for this?

Hi,
I have SQL server 2005 (Developer edition) installed and I want to add a database role to a database role. It is working on my SQL 2000 server,however, when I tried to do the same thing on SQL2005, It didn't allowed me.
When I go to the Add role and then adding members to the role, the browse screen does not allow me the choice of object type Roles. It only shows me "Users".
Can someone please help me with this and provide me some information of how / what should I set to get the Roles in object types list so I can add a role to a role.
Thanks
We are using Win2k3 R2 with SQL 2000 in a domain environment.
Is it possible to create a domain group to grant admin level and user level access to SQL2000/2005 without giving users server admin or domain admin access?
It has always been my impression that to have admin access to SQL that you had to at least had admin level access on the server.
Any clarification would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Hi , I'm looking for a way that SQL-S7 tells me, what db-role I have.
I want to avoid that the server generates an error message when I'm not
authorized to access an information. So I could give the users only that
information they are authorized for.
May be there is a stored procedure or a template ?
Or is there an other way for controlled checking whether I have the rights
or not ?
Thanks for help
When I assign a role to a user, the user is not actually getting the permissions defined in the role. I am forced to give the permissions directly to the user..any idea why it's ignoring the role which is assigned?
Thanks.
I have set up all new Roles assigned different views, table access to each user i set up.
Whilst setting this up - i could do script to generate the script.
Is there a way to get this script after the effect - some roles i forgot to generate script.
I know im being lazy - i could write the entire script out but thought maybe there a way to get this .
Thanks
Hello:
I have read that giving a User the DB_DDLAdmin role in SQL might causes problems with ownership chains in the future. Since the User will have ownership to all objects created, what preventive measures can one take to help avoid any problems which might loom in the distant future due to ownership chains?
Thank you,

Hi everybody,
The below I posted on SQL 2000 Forum about a week ago.
Any new thoughts................
I would like to get an input from as many people as possible on the following:
In our organization DBA is responsible for 5 servers ( currently NT 4/SQL 7)and is a part of group of a 5 people including manager and 3 developers.
DBA currently has a FULL access to every server.
In a few months we will be replacing the existing system with Windows 2000/SQL 2000.
LAN group will give to DBA only a read rights for the Windows 2000 environment, saying that the AUDITORS, both internal and external, require that. In other words, if DBA needs to run a command prompt, move files from one directory to another in Production environment, he has to fill the request to LAN, so LAN group would do that.
So I guess the main question(s) is:
What is the degree of involmment of DBA with Operating system?
Is DBA suppose to be an NT administrator ( I dont think so, since DBA has a lot of other thing to do?
If DBA accidently makes an unwanted changes to the Operating System, who should be blamed for ( not personally, but in more general terms) and would it be an extra argument to take write rights away from a DBA?
What auditors saying about that?
Thanks a lot in advance,
Andrei
Hi Everybody,
The end users are using VB Applications, there they will be entering datas. Those datas will be stored in the SMS Database.
My Problem is through which Roles (Fixed Server Roles or Database Roles) I should attach these end users. If it is a Fixed Server Roles, Other than sysadmin role in which role I should attach this end user. Like that other than DB_Owner in which role I should attach these end users to the Database Roles.
Can anyone guide me please.
thanks,
Srinivasan.

I am confused . What is considered an application and how SQL would know ?
If I have a web site accessing SQL VIA IIS will SQL Server treat it as an application ? How about MS Excel ?
Also , If I was to use the application of Power builder , using app role , how do control which user can use the app ?
Thanks
I'm trying to allow my developers the ability to modify/execute their jobs and dts packages in production....without giving away the security farm so to speak.
Is the processadmin role a possibility?
BOL and the net only seems to say this role allows user to "manage process"...duh.
Your thoughts and advice would be great appreciated.
Hi All,
Is it possible to give a user a sysadmin role and then deny some of the privileges?
I am a junior dba, I should be able to view only everything that the sysadmin can see, i.e. db properties, logins, packages, jobs etc.

Thanks.
I am a promotional DBA and need help with some code a developer wrote that errors out.
He is trying to create a role and to my knowledge there is nothing wrong with the syntax but it gives an incorrect syntax error.
CREATE ROLE 'PPS' IDENTIFIED BY 'stressboy';
error: Server: Msg 170, Level 15, State 1, Line 1
Line 1: Incorrect syntax near 'ROLE'.
we tried it with ' ' & "" and without either. I'm sure this is an easy one for you all. Thanks.
what views table that I can use to view the server roles on the instance?
thanks,
Hi,
I am developing the security in a sql database, and i am doing so in a hierarchical way. In the white paper Row and cell security it says that we must add the child role as a menber of the parent role, but when you are in the role section you can not add roles as menbers of another role, so what i did was give the parent role ownership over the child role, it seemed logical.
So i build a admin
|
boss
|
worker
|
subworker
Nested Role
Now after giving users to those roles i was good to go and try my hierarchy security, i used the view that is in the white paper cell and row security which the code is the following:
SELECT ID, Label
FROM dbo.tblUniqueLabel WITH (NOLOCK)
WHERE (ID IN
(SELECT dbo.tblUniqueLabel.ID
FROM dbo.tblUniqueLabelMarking WITH (NOLOCK)
WHERE (CategoryID = 1) AND (IS_MEMBER(MarkingRoleName) = 1)))
But when i runned this view dont matter which users in which role ist always giving me an output of every single line in the table, the problem seem that he is giving me out the IS_MEMBER(MarkingRoleName) = 1 always as true like the user was in every single role.
What am i doing wrong?
Thanks.

Hi all,
I have a report based on a cube with some parameters. So far, everything works fine, but there is one thing I want to improve for user-friendliness. I have a parameter linked to country selection and the roles are also based on countries.
My issue is that even if a user can only access the data of one country, in the drop-down list of the parameters, all the countries are available (even if no data is linked to these countries).
I'm wondering if there is a way to "filter" the parameters selection, to display only the countries useful for a specific user.
Thanks.

Hi,
Is there a way to script out a database role from SQL management studio?
I can only get a script for create or drop. I am looking for a script that shows all object permissions that the role has in a database.
Thanks.
hi,
since I am kind o'new with SQL, I preffer get an advice fro you pro's: I created an application which performs access to a database on an SQL server. the application will be used by a few different users, each on a different computer. the application calls stored procedures, updatesinserts records in tables on the SQL and delete rows. what would be the best role to define the users activity ? How do I limit their activity ONLY to the specified actions ?
