Re: SQL 2000 Encryption

It is 40-bit or 128-bit depending on whether or not both web and database
server have the High Encryption options installed and using SSL. Without
SSL, there is some obfuscation, but absolutely no encryption.

As far as caveats, check these out:

Can someone inform me to what level the encryption level is on SQL
Server 2000 network traffic? I have been unable to find a firm number,
under the impression that it is only 40-bit. Is this wrong?

Also, if you use SSL encryption between SQL 2000 and IIS 6.0, what are
some of the caveats that you might expect?


Thanks in Advance.....
