Hello!
Can anyone tell me if I can totally Lock Down a named
instance of SQL Server MSDE that will be distributed
within a shrink-wrapped software application? We cannot
have anyone that has SQL Server Enterprise installed, to
be able to Register our MSDE from within Enterprise
Manager and view/alter the data. Any suggestions would be
greatly appreciated!
