absolutely right. SSIS just creates a copy of the login, but the password is not copied. whats the purpose then to just copy login only. I treid scripting out logins, whch had some jumbled password. Even that too did not work. It just created login in SLQ 2008. Is there any difference in login passwords in SQL 2005 and 2008.

I have to do this first from 2005 to 2008. Am wound up in the first stge 🙁
