Can I add a password for SQL Server “sysadmin” role?












0















I need help in adding password to SQL server role. Actually I'm working on SQL server and Sybase ASE. In Sybase I can add a password for SA_ROLE & SSO_Role. Can I do the same in SQL Server?



Thanks in advance,
Ramez Nabil

          Typical SQL Server roles do not have passwords associated with them. A SQL login has a password, and that SQL login is then assigned to a role.



          (There is a mechanism with SQL called an Application Role. That type of role has a password associated with it, but I don't think that's what you are asking about.)
