  • Then you would need to revoke all permissions from the public role. To do so would leave your SQL Server in an unsupported state as per Microsoft. And there are two objects you absolutely must not revoke permissions from. More info? See my GSEC practical paper:

    SQL Server 2000: Permissions on System Tables Granted to Logins Due to the Public Role

  • Hi,

    I created a login given permission on a database but this user can access the master database becasue of guest login.

    I need to restrict that user not to access the system databases.

  • The guest user must be left on for master and tempdb. There was a thread a while back where Andy Leonard played around with forcing access off by manually updating the system tables but the result wasn't a good one. There are a couple of objects in master that every user needs to be able to access. You can see those items in Microsoft's OpenHack 4 documentation. I also point out those two objects in my practical.

    If we left the guest user as .Then any user can access the database and can harm it or miss use it.
