password

  • I took a backup of a 2000 user database and restored it to a different 2000 server.

    Then DTS over logins.

    It seems no passwords for logins came over with the DTS.

    Is this always the case with Backup/Restore?

    Is there a fix?

  • The actual passwords are stored in master in syslogins table. DTS most does not pull over the password in the wizard. You should be able to move the passwords directly.

  • whay do you mean "move the passwords directly".

    I have a Peopleosft Databases with 400 Users.

  • This should help. Check out "INF: How To Transfer Logins and Passwords Between SQL Servers (Q246133)" http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;Q246133
