    Is it necessary for me to change the sa password?

    What sort of problems are expected if I do not change or do change.

    It is not necessary but recommended to change it , if you feel that some anonymous people know it (which shouldnt be) then you must change it

    secondly if wont effect anythiing unless you are using it at places where it is specified or hard coded.

  • Thank You. Some what related question - if a windows ID (in sql server setup as windows authentication) has sysadmin authority and it is the owner of a database, when windows password changes, is there something that needs to be done in sql server. Database is not encrypted in this case.
