Permission Issues

Dear all,

I created a login name xxx and assigned few permisson on database <xyz>.

Now i want to grant execute permission to user xxx on extended stored procedure xp_cmdshell.

Without creating user in master database is there other way to grant the same to user xxx.

Regards

Mohd Sufian

Using xp_cmdshell requires a high level of permissions.

You can create a proxy account for xp_cmdshell, put the use of xp_cmdshell into a stored procedure, and then give your user permission for the stored procedure.

Check in Books Online about xp_cmdshell and proxy accounts.
