BUT if you restore it to a new db on a different server, all teh Users will be in the database, but they won't have logins on the server . . . and when you try to create the logins they will have different SIDS so you need to first identify the users SID, then then use sp_addlogin @loginname = 'username' , @passwd = 'password' , @sid = 'users SID' the full syntax is in Books online. To get the users SID use sp_helpuser in your recently restored DB.Hope this helps and doesn't cloud the Issue-- RegardsTony The DBA |
