Hello Folks,

Could somebody please tell me how to resolve permission issues on a sql 2000 server.I have got a user named niku in my database and a login with the same name. When i try to get into the database with query analyzer it comes up with login failed for user niku.

I have used the sp_change_user_login options but none seem to be working.

When i select from sysusers and syslogins in the master db i can see the user and SID but for some reason i cant just log in please help.

Is the user listed as PERMIT or DENY server access? Easy way to tell is look in Enterprise Manager under Logins in the Server Access column.

Now I know, and knowing is half the battle!
