How to change login in linked server (From Sql Security to Integrated Sec)

We are having some commercial applications that are running on sql servers at different sites, all with sql security. The software vendor wants to copy data into staging tables on our BI server. But our BI server only support Integrated security.

But how can i say, in the definition of a linked server (at the remote machines) to swicth security system ?

If it is possible i could enter a fixed domain-account in that users fields, but i suppose that this field was intended for SqlServer security.

Hi,

Create a login say (Remoteaccess) on both the server and give permission on the database(fullrights).

Use this remote login in ur linked server.

Then u can permorm ETL process on both the server.

The same way u can do on other servers also.

Another way is u can setup replication(but it will increase overhead).

You can drop the existing linked server login mapping using sp_droplinkedsrvlogin and recreate them using sp_addlinkedsrvlogin. In the new login mapping, you can set the @.useself parameter to true.

Let us know if this works!

How To Change All Records in a Single Field?

Hey guys,
I am in a bit of a pickle. I have to do a software training today,
and my training database is hosed. I have a production database, but
I do not want the users to actually see a customer=92s live data on the
screen. I want to make a global alternation to all records on a
single field such as change everyone=92s account number to a specific
value.
Is there a way to do this in SQL 2005?
Thanks!Create a view and show them the results of the view.
CREATE VIEW dbo.foo
AS
SELECT col1, col2, AccountNumber = 'foo', col3, ...
FROM dbo.Original_Table;

Thanks!|||UPDATE ThatTable
SET SomeColumn = 'NewValue'
Since there is no WHERE clause to limit the effect, every row in
ThatTable will be updated.
The problem with changing a customer's account number that way is that
it is likely to violate a UNIQUE constraint, as well as appearing in
many tables. It is likely to be used for JOINs.
