Restrict Logins

Hi All:
I'm running SQL Server 7 in an NT environment using SQL Server
Authentication for the logins.
I'm a developer who has recently accepted the responsibilities for SQL
Server maintenance. I'm not really qualified to do this, but I'm
learning. Lord knows I need all the help and suggestions I can get;
I'm readily maintaining the status quo and make any modifications only
after what I consider exhaustive testing on our "test server". I've
just been handed the task of restricting certain logins to a specific
machine.
I do know that when I look at the running processes in EM I can see
the machines the users are connecting from.
Is there some way I can trap this information, issue an alert that
will start a job to kill the offending process? Or, is there some way
I can use DMO to do this'
I had originally thought that maybe I could intercept the login and
make the appropriate checks and deny the login... But, I haven't
found anything that indicates this approach is "do-able".
Then I found the active processes information and I began to wonder if
there wasn't some way to trap this information and issue a process
kill all in unattended mode.
I'm a developer and am not "married" to the EM ( it does make life and
learning easier).
Any and all help and suggestions are definitely appreciated.
TIA,
cathyHi,
If it is SQL Server Login or Windows user connecting to SQL server then you
can DENY the user to access the tables, If it is Host name
then you cant deny or revoke directly , But you can follow the below steps
to kill the user.
1. Create a script which looks like:-
use master
go
declare @.x varchar(1000)
set @.x=''
select @.x = @.x + ' kill ' + convert(varchar(5), spid)
from master.dbo.sysprocesses
where hostname = 'host_name' -- replace this with the actual host name
exec (@.x)
go
2. Schedule this script every 1 minute daily in SQL Agent -- Jobs. This will
check and the process if it logs in from the host name you mentioned.
Thanks
Hari

Restoring Master DB or transfering logins etc

Hi there, I'm hoping you can help a SQL novice......
i need to move the SQL installs for a couple of our SQL7 servers (and sadly
no, they cant be upgraded).
i've restored the DB's no problems but i'm having problems with the master
DB and/ or its contents. i want to get all the logins, agents jobs etc from
the old servers to the new ones. restoring the master DB would do this, but
unfortunately, the drive structure on the new servers doesn match that of the
old and so the locations of the other SQL built in DB's (model, MSDB, tempdb)
is now different. if i restore the Master DB (in single user mode obviously)
the services fail to then re-start because they cant locate these DB's.
so my question.... is there any way to restart SQL service post a master
restore, without it looking for these DB's so i can then modify the file
location properties of these DB?
OR
is there any way to get stuff like the security logins, SQL agent jobs etc
from one server to another without restoring the Master DB?
many thanks for you help and advice.
Hi
There are lots discussion about such issues , try to search on.
It's my way how I do it
1) Backup all user and system databases on the old server
2) Script out all logins (MS has provide two SP to script it out)
3) Script all jobs/dts packages
4) Restore all user databases
5) Run the output of two MS store procedures on destination server
6) Run the output of jobs script.
7) Re-create all dts packages
