Well, if you are talking about ease of use, I'd not argue. But the current discussion is about security. Would you ever see Oracle/DB2 turn on the admin account and leave the password blank by default? No, but SQL Server did. How about the original topic of this thread? I don't think Oracle/DB2 would by default allow any guest to get in and see your DBs and objects. I'm not a SQL Server admin expert, so I'm just going by what's been said here, and personally I'd tend to avoid SQL Server, because if it's security record. -------------- This transmission may contain information that is privileged, confidential and/or exempt from disclosure under applicable law.
