Users Should Not Have Access To SQL Server
Apr 13, 2010
Is it feasible to deploy a VB.NET windows forms application with a SQL Server back end where no users have direct access to SQL Server? The idea is that there is no way someone at the client site with admin capabilities could mess up the data definition, or directly alter data. I always assumed that somebody with the client should get admin capabilities, but perhaps not.
The application will have to have the capability of creating logins, doing backups, perhaps running scripts (encrypted?) For upgrades, and whatever else a user with elevated privileges would do. I guess the application would have a hard-coded account with admin privileges for this purpose. Is this a common way to deploy an application? The application uses SQL Server Express, which is installed with the application. The database will be installed with the application.

For example, a user logs in and sets his status in SQL Server to active. While using the program, it suddenly blacks out. The status in SQL Server remains active. When the user logs in again, he can't access the same account in the program because in SQL Server the status remains active. How can I set the status to inactive during blackouts?

Looking for some .net snippet on accessing what users are logged into a domain. I have looked through all the AD namespace and okay with that in getting static items. Specifically, NOT looking for current logged in user for a given machine(have that as well). Looking for a list of users that are currently signed into a Domain.Essentially, I want to pass a user (or list of users) to a method that will check to see if the user passed in, is currently logged into the network (AD).

I know my Question was asked maybe 10000 times before, but i really did not take the chance to search the forum coz i really short of time.
I have *.mdb DataBase with 20 tables each table have more than 10 fields, i'm trying to automate the MDB file from a network like that 5 PCS + One vb.net exe program (5 users) working on the same time on the exe that is connected to the database , my questions are :
1) How much risk is it to put the database into one (shared) folder and connect it to the program ?
2) What is the best way to establish this method ?
3) Is there any alternatives ?

I'm trying to collect directories and add to TreeView. In Windows 7, there is a "Documents" folder under Libraries which is basically linked to "My Documents" under "Users". When I click "Documents" in the TreeView, I can get a list of all subdirectories by using
Dim dirs As String() = Directory.GetDirectories(strDir)

This program is going to submit GET data to our webpage. However, we don't want users accessing the webpage any other way than the program. We can prevent users from sharing the program using HWID authentication, but nothing prevents them from using a packet scanner to get the URL of the webpage. We thought about user-agent authentication, which we will implement, but user-agents can easily be spoofed.
how can we prevent users from accessing the webpage directly, instead of through the program?
Currently we will be implementing:
HWID Authentication to use the program User-Agent Authentication to access the web page Instant IP Blacklisting to anyone accessing the webpage without the proper User-Agent

In my application, I create data and log folders that must be shared by all users using this computer. I did a lot of research, and I found a function that is supposed to grant full access to every users of a folder and its children. However if right-click properties on my folder, the access is unchanged. ow should I grant full access to all users of a folder and its children (I don't care who created it, all users should be able to read and write to that folder)?
Public Sub GrantAllAccess(ByVal Folder As String)
Try
Dim DomainUser As String = Environment.UserDomainName & "" & Environment.UserName
[code].....

I am developing an access database that will be shared with multiple users.I don't want the users to access the database directly so I will have them enter new data on a data access page. The data access page is stored on a Microsoft Share Point web page, and the database is stored on a network drive.Here is my problem: When new data is entered on the web page I need it to trigger a WillChangeRecordset event; however, I have not been successful because the web page does not declare a new instance of a recordset object.At a minimum I need the new data to be processed before the web page appends the new data to the table.

I am developing a Visual Basic .NET application to be used by the staff of a small training centre nearby. The front-end (UI, menus, etc.) will all be in VB .NET, and there will be a back-end database for storing all of the required data, such as student records and meeting information. What I would like to know is if it's possible to use a Microsoft Access database for this purpose, and have it accessible by all the staff in the centre (on the same network) at the same time. For example, would I be able to put the database in a shared network folder, and have a copy of the VB application on each PC that would all be able to read/edit/add to the database?

We are currently using Access 97 as our database. This resides on the remote farm server (which is a Windows 2008 R2 server). We are using a front end vb6 exe which accesses the back end data.Occasionally we are getting corruption to our database and we have to make sure everyone exits the software to allow us to repair/compact it. There are 2 physical servers, each running 2 virtual machines. When the user logs onto the farm using RDP, they go to one of these 4 virtual machines.We are getting all kinds of corruption, some where # characters have been inserted into the top of one table, some where the indexes are corrupted, and some where access needs to repair the database.

I want to build an application, which can remote access to SQL Server in Server Machine.I used to build one, and it also can access to SQL Server in other pc. But when i promote it to become a Server(to become a Domain Controller). My application has never access to SQL Server. I don't know what to do now?
remember: I want to build an application, which is accessing to SQL Server in Window Server(Client/Server Application).

I want to know how you can export data from a disconnected database that could be access or ms sql to an sql server database.
Here is the scenario:
I have several software in a remote sites on either sql or ms access databases as back-ends...and I have another sql server database that i want to consolidate data from the remote sites.
One solution I have been thinking about is to use email to send incremental backups of the databases to the main database using a separate piece of software and have another one on the main server to pull that data into the database.
Basically am looking at setting up the remote databases as linked servers at the main database and then having incremental backups sent by email to the main database.
I have thought of replication but the internet link at the sites is terrible.
Is that a good implementation? If yes
How do i get to send the incremental backups and get them imported?(the code)
Tools:
Visual basic 2008 standard edition..Net 3.5
SQL Server 2005.
32 bit architecture.
