sp_helplinkedsrvlogin (Transact-SQL)

[!INCLUDEtsql-appliesto-ss2008-xxxx-xxxx-xxx-md]

Provides information about login mappings defined against a specific linked server used for distributed queries and remote stored procedures.

Topic link icon Transact-SQL Syntax Conventions

Syntax

  
sp_helplinkedsrvlogin [ [ @rmtsrvname = ] 'rmtsrvname' ]   
     [ , [ @locallogin = ] 'locallogin' ]  

Arguments

[ @rmtsrvname = ] 'rmtsrvname' Is the name of the linked server that the login mapping applies to. rmtsrvname is sysname, with a default of NULL. If NULL, all login mappings defined against all the linked servers defined in the local computer running [!INCLUDEssNoVersion] are returned.

[ @locallogin = ] 'locallogin' Is the [!INCLUDEssNoVersion] login on the local server that has a mapping to the linked server rmtsrvname. locallogin is sysname, with a default of NULL. NULL specifies that all login mappings defined on rmtsrvname are returned. If not NULL, a mapping for locallogin to rmtsrvname must already exist. locallogin can be a [!INCLUDEssNoVersion] login or a Windows user. The Windows user must have been granted access to [!INCLUDEssNoVersion] either directly or through its membership in a Windows group that has been granted access.

Return Code Values

0 (success) or 1 (failure)

Result Sets

Column name Data type Description
Linked Server sysname Linked server name.
Local Login sysname Local login for which the mapping applies.
Is Self Mapping smallint 0 = Local Login is mapped to Remote Login when connecting to Linked Server.

1 = Local Login is mapped to the same login and password when connecting to Linked Server.
Remote Login sysname Login name on LinkedServer that is mapped to LocalLogin when IsSelfMapping is 0. If IsSelfMapping is 1, RemoteLogin is NULL.

Remarks

Before you delete login mappings, use sp_helplinkedsrvlogin to determine the linked servers that are involved.

Permissions

Examples

A. Displaying all login mappings for all linked servers

The following example displays all login mappings for all linked servers defined on the local computer running [!INCLUDEssNoVersion].

EXEC sp_helplinkedsrvlogin;  
GO  

[!INCLUDEssResult]

Linked Server    Local Login   Is Self Mapping Remote Login
