When moving database from one physical server to other using any of the following method never brings the Login/users associated to them.
1. dbattach method
2. Transferring all object using GENERATE SQL SCRIPTS FOR ALL OBJECTS
3. BACKUP & RESTORE Methos

Any one knows how the Logins can be transferrd successfully.

Thanks,

Ravi

logins are used to gain access to the server and so are not specific to a database. They are held in master and map to users in a database. Note that when you transfer a database the users may map to a logon ID but this won't necessarily (or usually) be the same login as on the source server.

Hello NR,

So we need to create the Login(s) again if you transfer SQLServer Database from one Server to another.Is there any other way of handling this situation.

Thanks,

Ravi
