A couple of newbie questions:
1) Do Domain Admins have SA rights by default in SQL7? If so, is there a way to keep domain admins out of particular databases.
2) Is it possible to create a database or table that even SA can't get into?
Thanks

we recently migrated from our in-house domain to the Enterprise domain. Everything went smooth except for the fact that I can no longer accept my dBs using my SA or my domain admin account. There is only 1 account I can get into the management studio with but it has no admin privileges, so I can't make any  password changes or add accounts. I don't have a test environment so kind of hesitant to experiment with our production system.

We are using SBS2000 with SQL 2000 and Terminal server .
In the Terminal server ,we have an application that connect to sbs (sql) .
The Problem is that User without Domain Admin permission can not modify in database.
How Is it possible to grant full access to SQL2000 without giving users domain admin access?
Thanks ,

Hello,
is it possible to deactivate the groups admins and domain-admins in sql server without getting in trouble with the sql-server. For example when the system boots the program should start normally without any problems.
We want do deactivate the accounts because we have some critical information in sql server and dont want to give all admins the possibility to have a look at these data.
We just want to have sa within the role sysadmin.
Regards

Is SQL Server sensitive to Domain group name? Like "Domain Admin"?
I have user that belong to "myDomainDomain Admin" group. Group is in SQL as sysadmin but user cannot login using domain credentials. When I move that user to a different domain group which that group is in SQL again as sysadmin my user is able to login.Â
Environment: SQL 2008 Standard Edition.Â
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!
Based on our database infrastructure, we need to secure our SQL databases. The security issue concerns on allowing a limited number of Domain Admin users to access the SQL databases.
We tried certain ways, based on the documents in the Microsoft web site, but we couldn€™t reach to the point of preventing the Domain Admin users accessing the SQL databases.
Thanks in advance.
Would it be possible to disjoin the SQL Server Clustered environment to a new domain without having to reinstall the cluster?
disjoin
e.g 2 node activeactive cluster with 4 named instances. SQLserver1.dn.za; SQLserver2.dn.za; SQLserver3.dn.za;SQLserver4.dn.za
servernode1.dn.za; servernode2
re-join them as SQLserver1.dn.ra; SQLserver2.dn.ra; SQLserver3.dn.ra;SQLserver4.dn.ra
servernode1.dn.ra; servernode2.dn.ra
What would be the impact on the servers, will they be able to resolve the new dns.?
I am running into a weird issue with a new SQL Reporting Services 2014 server I built. I installed SQL Reporting 2014 on Windows Server 2012 R2 and configured Kerberos, but the site is extremely slow. After some reconfiguration and log captures I have determined the issue has to do with the Kerberos setup, however I am running a similar configuration with SQL Reporting Services 2008 on Windows Server 2008 R2 and do not run into the same errors.
The error I see while using Wireshark is KRB Error: KRB5KDC_ERR_BADOPTION NT Status: STATUS_NO_MATCH. When I drill down the into the error I can see the kerberos string is testprjmnmtreports14.company.com, which is the URL we are using to access the site. I made sure to add that name as an SPN for the service account that is running SQL Reporting Services, however I still receive the error.
Then I tried configuring the site to run without a hostheader, so I accessed the site with the server name, ECTSTSQLRS5, and the site works perfectly fine, no errors are reported either. So it seems I have isolated the issue down to Kerberos but I am not sure how to resolve it. Here is some more information about my environment:
DNS/URL used: testprjmnmtreports14.company.com
Server Name (FQDN): ECTSTSQLRS5.company.int
AD Domain Name: company.int
Server Version: Windows Server 2012 R2
AD Functional Level: 2008 R2
As you can see I am trying to use a .com address but my AD domain is .int which I think is the issue, but I do not have the same problem on my other server that is running Windows Server 2008 R2. What do I need to do to allow my new site on 2012 R2 to work with this DNS Alias?
I have DBA that is convinced that they need domain admin rights to install SQL 2005 into an existing cluster. The domain groups and service accounts for SQL have been created already. Is having domain admin rights required during the install of SQL 2005 in a cluster?

We have the followoing:
-A "master domain" AD, a "sub domain" AD, a trust relationship between the two (sub trust master)
-A sql server 2005 on a win server 2003 in "sub domain" AD
-A linked server to "sub domain" AD
-A linked server login using a "sub domain" admin acccount
-A view to this linked server
-A grant on masterDomain/Domain Users to the database
-A grant on subDomain/Domain Users to the database
-We want all connections done through "Windows Authentication" not "Database Authentication".
Queries on the view work fine using "sub domain" user accounts.
Queries on the view fail using "master domain" user accounts (including master domain admin accounts)
"Msg 7399, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
The OLE DB provider "ADsDSOObject" for linked server "ADSI" reported an error. The provider indicates that the user did not have the permission to perform the operation."
All connections are done through "Windows Authentication" not "Database Authentication".
Can we establish cross domain connectivity with "Windows Authentication" ?
Below are details of the implementation:
SELECT TOP (100) PERCENT *
FROM OPENQUERY(ADSI,
'SELECT displayname, givenName, sn, cn (etc...)
FROM ''LDAP://OU=PEOPLE,DC=subDomain,DC=com''
WHERE objectCategory = ''Person'' AND objectClass = ''user'' ')
EXEC sp_addlinkedsrvlogin @rmtsrvname ='ADSI', @useself='false',
@rmtuser='subDomainAdminAccnt', @rmtpassword='sunDomainAdminAccntPassword';
In SQL Server Mngt Studio in Server Objects/Linked Servers/Providers/ ADSI properties security tab I have:
"connections will: <be made using this security context> Remote login:'subDomainAdminAccnt' With password: 'subDomainAdminAccntPassword'
Error:
Msg 7399, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
The OLE DB provider "ADsDSOObject" for linked server "ADSI" reported an error. The provider indicates that the user did not have the permission to perform the operation.
Msg 7320, Level 16, State 2, Line 1
Cannot execute the query "SELECT displayname, givenName, sn, cn
FROM 'LDAP://OU=PEOPLE,DC=subDomain,DC=com'
WHERE

AND objectClass = 'user'
" against OLE DB provider "ADsDSOObject" for linked server "ADSI".
I have a root domain and child domain.
After using ADMT to migrate the domain user or group into the root domain, when I use enterprise manager to try and change the permissions allocated to that domain user/group, i get the 'Error 15401 NT user or Group not found'.
This is a correct error as the user is now in the root domain, however sql (in sysxlogins) still thinks its in the child domain.
Is there a simpler way, other than collecting the users permissions, deleting the user from SQL then adding back in with the correct domainusername format, then adding the permissions back?
I tried renaming the 'name' in sysxlogins (not recommended) and while that worked, whenever I tried to add the migrated user to another database, the login name was missing and would not resolve.
I believe it is something to do with the SID not matching.
Any ideas on how to fix this ?

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.

Hi
I'm trying to set up replication from one SQL server to another.
The publishing server is not a member of a domain and is located in a hosting center (but we have full control over the server). I can set up a Snapshot publication just fine.
The subscribing server is located in another remote location and is a member of a domain. Here I can also set up the subscription without errors.
The errors, I think, comes when the snapshot is about to be created, the error is, on the publisher server:
[298] SQLServer Error: 18456, Login failed for user 'NT AUTHORITYANONYMOUS LOGON'. [SQLSTATE 28000]
And the snapshot is not created.
Is it even possible to set up replication like this. I need to transfer the data from one sql server to another so we have a working "backup" so to speek if the other server does not respond.
Guys,
I have problem in adding the user. The domain name "scs" that I am logged on a machine with user name "rao", But I am not able this user to SQL Server as scs/rao, it gives that the not found.
Your suggestions greatly appreciated.

Hi All,
I am in the process of installing SQL Server 2005. Under Service Account I am selecting the domain user account option. It asks for the username, password and the domain name. How can I find out what the domain name is?
Thanks.

and in
<connection- url>jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver://localhost:1433;DatabaseName=DEV01</connection-url>

How do I get the domain name of a sql server 2005 instance please?
Thanks
A while back I asked this in the SQL security forum, but did not receive any replies. I feel that this is a fairly basic, common question, so I am posting it here in the hopes that this forum has higher traffic and that someone here will know the answer.
I am trying to connect as follows:
Server: Windows 2003, SQL 2005, on a domain
Client: Windows 2008 Beta, not on any domain
I created an account with the same user name as the domain user on the client machine. And then I logged in as that user and went to Manage Network Password. I entered the correct domain credentials. Verified that this worked for file shares. However, SQL does not appear to be recognizing this and it tells me:
Login failed for user ''. The user is not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection.
I have verified that this domain account is working properly with SQL when the client is also on the domain.
Q: How can I get this Windows authentication scenario to work where the client is not on the domain and the SQL server is on the domain?
(Note: A similar case that can also occur frequently is that the server and client are on different domains.)
1. How could I change the Domain within SQL Server.
2. When the NT Server changed to a new domain, Does the SQL server change also? Could someone help me. Thank you.
SQL2K SP2 on Win2K Server in single native-mode domain
I'm trying to change MSSQLServer and SQLServerAgent to run under a domain account instead of LocalSystem. SQL is not running on the DC. I get Error 22042:xp_SetSQLSecurity() returned error -2147023564, 'No mapping between account names and security ID's was done'.
The SQL machine is part of the domain. I'm logged in as a Domain Admin.
What is the problem?
I can map to a domain to the server where I have a sql Server database from my machine which is in another domin.
However, I cannot register the sql server with enterprise manager from the same machine. I am assuming that it is not a permission problem since I could not get the registration to work logging on as SA or with windows authorization. What should be looked at?
We have a network setup with two domain controllers, DC1 and DC2, working independently from eachother along with a DBserver1 that runs a BCM database and is a member of DC1. For certain reasons we would like to demote the DBserver1 and join it on the domain of DC2. What are the steps required in order to properly move a BCM Database running on SQL2005 to a new domain, where the security data lies in the active directory of DC1?

I am trying to migrate users accounts from a 2000 Server to 2003 server I am changing domain names and the new domain a is a child domain off a parent domain. I have created a trust on both domain servers and the parent domain and I have created administrative users on each domain I am using the ADMIT migration tool and can get all the way through it then get an access denied when it trys to create the accounts. The knowledge bases on this say I need a Domain Admin user on each domains for the other domain. Being in a child domain it does not let me create this I have created users and added the admistrative group for each user this should give the rights to create the users on the new domain, but still am getting the access denied.
Does anyone know what I am missing on this? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
thanks,

The mirroring wizard insists I enter a fully qualitifeid domain name for my servers. But my servers are not on a domain - I just address them as machinenameinstancename, which the wizard convertrs to TCP://machinename:5022. When I click Start Mirroring it tells me that this is not a FQDN, which is true. How do I make this work?

Hi, all
I need a help here please.
Im using SQL Server 2000 on a server, and theres clients that need to connect to the sql server, and the clients are the users that have domain ids.
Firstly i run the sqlserver under local system user (default).And the clients which is login into a domain and can automatically login with windows authentification. But before i have already added the domain name for the client in the security login of sql server.
Then, i change the sqlserver services to be run under a local user with no admin right. After that, i cannot use windows authentification, i have to use sa. The reference i used for applying this is written in this url : http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;Q283811
The problem is i need to use both the sqlservices to be run under local with no admin right user and i need to use windows authentification.
Please help.
Thank you very much
