users in sql2000

  • Good morning everybody,

    OK, today I a have a question, in sql2000, I exported the user names from one data base to another one in different servers, generating and running a script, OK, now I have in the destiny data base the users already, but I don't have the passwords, is there a way to export the passwords too??? or do I have to enter again the passwords???

    thanx a lot, have a nice day

  • Passwords are stored in sysxlogins, you can move them using DTS in SQL2K, do an update query using a linked server, or there is a feature of sp_addlogin that will you pass the encrypted password as well.
