    db transfer


    I recently transferred a db from our production machine to a test machine. After the transfer was complete I realized that all copied logins were copied with blank passwords. Is this default behavior? Can I set the transfer to include passwords?

    No, you cannot copy passwords.

    Yes, you can!
    Copy the syslogins table from original server in master db into
    temp table.
    Then transfer this table to new server.
    Last step is updating of the new server.master.syslogins.password
    column to values from the transfered temp table.

    To clarify, with Transfer Manger, there is no way to transfer passwords.
