Re: Am I doing this right?

There just isn't that level of granularity with security
under SQL Server 2000. That changes in SQL Server 2005
though.
The only way to get close is by using an undocumented role
in msdb - TargetServer role. However, the permissions for
this role changes depending on the service pack level and
you'd have to be running at SP 2 or lower to get close to
what you are asking for.

Thanks for the reply. So then how in the world can I create a login that
allows the user to access, start and stop SQL Server Agent scheduled jobs and
do liuttle or nothing else? I am stumped on this and it seems like it
*ought* to be easy!

A deny for a sysadmin won't do anything. Members of the

I have a new user that will eventually be another admin on our SQL Server 200
installation. I want to give him permission to stop and Restart Scheduled
jobs, yet not have permission to insert/update or delete in specific
databases until he gets more experience. The only predefined server role
that allows access to scheduled jobs is SystemAdministrator, but that also
gives permissions everywhere to everything.

Will creating a User in each database I want to protect based on his login,
and then selecting db_denydatawriter do what I want to do, or will the also
selected SystemAdministrator priviledge override this altogether?
