db reader and deny

  • Hi

    Does db reader take predominance over db deny reader? And how about db owner and deny db rights, bit confused.

    Thanks

  • Deny overrules grant, so if you add someone to db_datareader and db_denydatareader, they will not be able to read anything.

    As for db_owner, test and see. (can't recall offhand whether db_owner behaves like sysadmin w.r.t. permissions)
