Re: sql2005 enforce user change password in 30 days



I'm guessing that you mean SQL Server logins. Windows-based logins are
secured by the Windows security policies (LocalSecurityPolicies or
DomainSecurityPolicies). In SQL Server 2005, when run on OSes that support
it (Windows Server 2003 and above), you can enforce the (same) local or
domain policy by specifying CHECK_POLICY = ON, CHECK_EXPIRATION = ON in the
CREATE LOGIN or ALTER LOGIN statement. Then SQL Server logins will then go
by the same local or domain security policies that Windows logins do. Make
sure that you provide a way in the application for a SQL Server login to
change the password (all "modern" SQL Server database API support this with
API calls). Otherwise you'll need to use SQLCMD or SSMS to change passwords.
