The backup for the Master Key requires a CONTROL permission on the database. That tells me the person has to be a SysAdmin, DBOwner or a DBBackupOperator. I don't know...

That's just it. Qwest would "get your permission" when you cashed the little checks they sent out. Or if you competed in a contest they were sponsering or even if...

I definitely have to agree with your second comment there, but you forgot to mention the free swag. @=)

Okay, I found the word. I had the # of syllables wrong, though.
What Qwest was doing was called "slamming". You can find a detailed entry for it at Wikipedia.

No. There was actually a term for it that was uniquely different from fraud and scam. It was like 4 syllables long and it had never been applied to anyone...

When we installed SQL 2005, we were unable to split the .mdf and .ldf files. We could change the base location of the DBs, but couldn't split up the files. ...

Okay, now that's just weird. I had never noticed this behavior from SQL Server 2005, but you are absolutely correct. When I only specific one column in the SELECT (out of...

I haven't tried this, but you might investigate setting up a DDL trigger on the certification events. Or check the other DDL Events and Event Groups to see if something...

I can see your point, but I still quibble with the word "scam". The way I understand a scam to be is that you pay money, get nothing in return...

But the last time I checked, you couldn't really log into the actual server (OS) with the SA account, even though the SA account has those privledges. You have to...

There are hundreds of domain registry companies in existance, most of them legit. They compete for business, sending out emails and snailmail about their services. The name and address information...

Unfortunately, I see events like this all the time. They're called Vendor Shows. It doesn't matter what industry you're in (software, hardware, rental, industrial, etc.), everyone holds a yearly event...

The problem with applying things through GPOs is that while many DBAs may have local Windows Admin permissions, rarely --if ever-- does a DBA have Domain Admin permissions or Admin...

To have jobs run across multiple servers, you don't need Admin access. You need a plain vanilla domain user (not domain admin) account for the SQL Services to use and...

Another instance when a DBA may have local admin rights on a box is when the DBA is responsible for "soft" server administration support. This has been the case in...
