use SQL authentication on the provided powershell scripts

  • Hi Cmille 19. I have tried both powershell scripts without any problems on SQL DBs who are members of our Windows domain. However, I need to connect to a MSSQL DB that is not a member of our domain. Can you give us PS1 using SQL authentication? THanks in advance

  • Hi again Cmille19,

    I am using the ff ps to successfully connect to an instance using sql authentication. But can't seem to integrate this with the PS scripts you provided. Hope you can help me out. THanks again.

    param

    (

    [string]$serverName = "instance_name",

    [switch]$verbose,

    [switch]$debug

    )

    function main()

    {

    if ($verbose) {$VerbosePreference = "Continue"}

    if ($debug) {$DebugPreference = "Continue"}

    Connect-MSSQL-IPSQLAuth $serverName

    }

    function Connect-MSSQL-IPSQLAuth($serverName)

    {

    trap [Exception]

    {

    write-error $("TRAPPED: " + $_.Exception.Message);

    continue;

    }

    [void][System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo")

    [void][System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("Microsoft.SqlServer.SqlEnum")

    [void][System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("Microsoft.SqlServer.SmoEnum")

    [void][System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("Microsoft.SqlServer.ConnectionInfo")

    $smoServer = New-Object -typename Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.Server `

    -argumentlist "$serverName"

    $smoServer.ConnectionContext.set_LoginSecure($FALSE)

    $LoginCredentials = Get-Credential

    $Login = $LoginCredentials.UserName -replace("\\","")

    $smoServer.ConnectionContext.set_EncryptConnection($FALSE)

    $smoServer.ConnectionContext.set_Login($Login)

    $smoServer.ConnectionContext.set_SecurePassword($LoginCredentials.Password)

    # The ff tests a successful db connect

    cls

    Write-Host Your connection string contains these values:

    Write-Host

    Write-Host $smoServer.ConnectionContext.ConnectionString.Split(";")

    Write-Host

    # List info about databases on the instance.

    Write-Host "Databases on $serverName "

    Write-Host

    foreach ($Database in $smoServer.Databases)

    {

    write-host "Database Name : " $Database.Name

    write-host "Owner : " $Database.Owner

    write-host

    }

    }

    main
