Hi Folks,
I believe there is a way to transfer db users and logins in sql server using Business Intelligence or SSIS. Does anyone know of any articles to outline this (any help appreciated)

I think, once you restore a database from one server to the other, all the logins would be transferred, you would need to map the orphaned users.

Logins don't move with a database so you'd either have to create them or transfer them seperately.

There is an SSIS task called the Transfer Logins Task. BOL has instructions for it.

sp_change_users_login is a way to sync logins to users.
If you are moving databases, typically you move the logins once, then each time you restore, you might have to re-sync things.

Yes that right! ..once the restore is done, we need the following commands to be executed :
This will lists the orphaned users:
EXEC sp_change_users_login 'Report'
If you already have a login id and password for this user, fix it by doing:
EXEC sp_change_users_login 'Auto_Fix', 'user'
If you want to create a new login id and password for this user, fix it by doing:
EXEC sp_change_users_login 'Auto_Fix', 'user', 'login', 'password'
thanks,
