Hi...
I always make user logins and passwords in 1 table. I make a table to store my user ID and passwords. When my app runs, it will check the user ID and passwords in that table.
Now, I'm asked to check the User ID and password to SQL Server Logins ID.
Do you know how to check the User ID and password to SQL Server Login ID from VB6 ???
Regards,
Wille
I maybe missing something but doesnt your connection string do that???
cn.Open "Provider=sqloledb;" & _
"Data Source=myServerName;" & _
"Initial Catalog=DbName;" & _
"User Id=Username;" & _
"Password=Password"
I agree w/ Beacon on this. Try to make a connection to the server using the users login. Be sure to trap any errors. You can then check any error messages that are returned to see if the user has access to the server or not. That's how I handle it anyway.
Or...
If you're familiar with how SQL encrypts passwords in the syslogins table, you could check the userid and password against that table.
one thing for sure is....
I don't know how to get the user.
Suppose like this :
In Database "FtyDB", I have user list in user tab ==> mydomain\Wen_Lie, with wl as the password.
Can I just use what beacon said ???
