  • RE: SQL on the Internet. A License Question!

    Unless you know you're going to have X number of concurrent users, you're probably better off buying per processor.

    The licensing is legal jargon, but it basically amounts to this: however...

  • RE: sysprocesses::nt_username Empty

    Custom extended stored procedure probably won't collect this information... is there a reason you aren't using Windows authentication?

  • RE: sysprocesses::nt_username Empty

    That's because Named Pipes is a communication process which is requiring authentication. You're getting the benefit of that in SQL Server as a result. TCP/IP, on the other hand, doesn't...

  • RE: Code Stored in Files Instead of Stored Procedures

    Weighing in from a security perspective, a lot of what is being said here is disconcerting. I'll offer a few brief comments:

    All of these cases make use of BULK INSERT....

  • RE: Active/Active SQL SERVER 2000 CLUSTER

    Yes, Virtual name and IP address of the virtual sqlA would be owned by nodeB. Easy way to think about it:

    Cluster Name: Cluster1

    Physical Nodes: Physical1, Physical2

    Virtual Nodes: Virtual1, Virtual2

    Looking at...

  • RE: Application Notification

    True, but this uses sp_OA and that's generally frowned upon... because if you give access to a non-admin user, that user could potentially instantiate any COM+ object on the server.

  • RE: Server Farm

    Piggy-backing on what Richard has already said, the concept of a server farm in the Windows environment is typically applied to either web or an application tier, not SQL Server....

  • RE: SQL Server Logs - Setting Max Size

    Setting a max size probably isn't feasible, but perhaps you could cycle the logs on a regular basis? Brian Knight wrote about some undocumented tricks for logs:

  • RE: Slow SQL Server

    Yup, Profiler is your best bet here. One thing I'd add is to have Performance Monitor counter logging going at the same time watching memory, processors, disk usage, paging, etc....

  • RE: Please help!

    Okay, based on what you've said, there are a number of ways in that are worrisome. Here are 3 that come to mind.

    1) Since SQL Server and IIS are on...

  • RE: Application Notification

    An idea, don't know how feasible, since I don't work with MSMQ a lot.

    What about writing extended stored procedures that would drop in a message queue (MSMQ) or buy a...

  • RE: nonlogged operation

    It's going to be very hard to track down who did, then, since there is no audit trail. Probably the best thing to do is verify only that handful of...

  • RE: Remote log on question

    First, remove him as a domain admin. Second, take him out of the system admin role. He doesn't need those rights.

  • RE: Please help!
