Question

I want to create a user on a SQL Server 2005 database using the “without login” option. In other words, I only want the logon to be for that database.

I’ve seen in the documentation how to create a user using “without login”, but I haven’t seen anything with regards to a password.

I don’t care if the solution is a description of how to do this Management Studio or via a T-SQL script.

Thanks for any help in advance.

Answer 1

create user YourLoginlessUser without login
go

That code creates a Loginless User. When you create a loginless user, it is a user without a password. It is used to alter the security context for a given securable.

So to answer your question, you have it down how to create a loginless user. But a loginless user will not have a password, so that isn’t part of the user creation.

Does that answer your question?
