Re: User account for only SQL server

1. Create a LOCAL user account on the SQL server for the person.
2. Add the new account to the local Administrators group on the SQL server
only.
3. Give the new account SQL server admin permissions using the SQL server
management tools.

Because this is a local account on the SQL server only, it will not have
permission to any other computer (as long as the username and password are
not the same as another account in your domain).

Hi all

I have been searching for a solution for creating a certain user to be able
to logon only SQL server remotely.

Here is my senario:

1 x DC wins server 2003 AD
1 x SQL server - member server wins 2003 server.

I just want to creat a user account so that he or she is only able to log in
SQL server to maintain our database and do some other tasks on SQL server
remotely.

I am thinking that is an user local account previlleged enough for him or
her to perform his/her tasks on our SQL server?

Any help would be much appreciated.
