    Apologies for the repost. I may have posted in the incorrect (SQL Server 2005 General Discussion) forum.

    I want to select all logins, users, and user groups that are shown in the Security > Logins folder in SSMS.

    I run this command:

    select * from sys.sql_logins

    select * from sysusers

    The folder in SSMS has 66 items, but the query only returns 14 and 22 rows, even including things not shown in the folder such as db_owner, db_accessadmin, etc.

    select * from sys.server_principals

    that will have domain users, as well as all the built in users; the sql_logins is a limited view of that same data(WHERE type_desc = 'SQL_LOGIN').
