Hi
Do a web admin also needs complete access to the databases just as sql admin. Does any of the deployment process needs sql admin previlages.

nope, you only need to create the dsn and allow the application to provide the credentials

also make sure that the firewall is open between the web and db server if in different segments

no not really.
a web admin must ensure the proper working of iis.
network admin ensures the db is accessible from web server.
dba ensures anthing db related.

ideally these are 3 persons. usualy it's 1.

well you need one top DBA who's the boss. he must be trustworthy.
he can them monitor all other junior DBA's and give them proper sql server roles.

of course if you're really paranioid you can always have a computer in a dark and locked room that runs SQL profiler.
this computer is locked and the room is also locked.

yep, you need a database manager, hiring for one? he he he

on a serious note (huh? when's that?), those DBAs must have assignments like per project or per server, something like that

since they'll have SA privilege, keeping a reign on them will be difficult but letting them be accountable for their actions will scare them enough not to do something naughty...
