| Hi,
How do I limit access to a sql db? I do not want any user to be able to
view the db in enterprise manager.
Thanks

| That feature is not available in SQL 2000. Any authorized SQL user can view
the entire list of all databases.

| Why are your end-users using Enterprise Manager anyway? Is this a
requirement? If not, do not allow the end-users to use EM and that should
resolve "this" issue.

| I currently do not have an app using MS SQL. The reason I am curious about
this issue is that we have third party apps that use SQL and I am EM on the
server and I can see the db. How can I stop users from having EM when they
could need for other apps they have installed?

| Ron,
Typically end-users do not need nor use Enterprise Manager. That being said
if an end user did install EM and could see the database listings the
end-user would still be required to have a database user account in each
database listed to see the contents of the database. So the table contents
are still secure reguardless.

| I'd recommend creating a login (access to SQL Server) and a mapped database
user account (access to the database) with the appropriate permission rather
than using the sa login. If this login requires full permissions (i.e., dba
or dev) add the login to the fixed server role sysadmin.
