Re: What is "via group membership"



Sue
If you
execute sp_addsrvrolemember to add the Windows account to a
fixed server role, the login will be listed with Server
Access Via group membership.

I did some testing just and it did not show up Via group membership

EXEC sp_addsrvrolemember @loginame='WINDOW\John',@rolename = 'sysadmin'

It's a matter of how the login was added to SQL Server.
Windows accounts can be granted access to a role without
having explicitly added them as a login first. If you
execute sp_addsrvrolemember to add the Windows account to a
fixed server role, the login will be listed with Server
Access Via group membership.

Can someone please explain the Server Access option "via group
membership"?
This is found on the Logins screen in Enterprise Manager. It does not
appear
on the Create New Login form. What are the implications of a login with
this
server access setting?
