I have a requirement where I need a procedure which can connect to my all sql Servers and get roles / permmissions for all the users.

I think you just need to create the right tsql statement and use that as a OleDB Source in your dataflow or in a Execute SQL Task. A good start for that query is: http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/transactsql/thread/245b3e97-2f8d-4c52-b3ac-56875236cf4b That's for one server... and you can do that in a Foreach Loop to do that for all your servers.Please mark the post as answered if it answers your question | My SSIS Blog: http://microsoft-ssis.blogspot.com

try this : http://consultingblogs.emc.com/jamiethomson/archive/2007/02/09/SQL-Server-2005_3A00_-View-all-permissions--_2800_2_2900_.aspx you can use it as SSISJoost said with foreach to find for all servers.http://www.rad.pasfu.com

Many Thanks for your reply. I have around 100 instances. So I need a script where i can input instance names as a file and it generates a nice report which is readable to auditors. Can you help on this?

Put all the servers in a database table (or file) and use a Foreach Loop Container to loop through that list of servers.Please mark the post as answered if it answers your question | My SSIS Blog: http://microsoft-ssis.blogspot.com

you can also use foreach loop container with Foreach Item Enumerator, this will allow you to create a data table as enumerator, add a column for server names, and add server name values there, then you can map a variable in variable mappings tab with index 0, then inside foreach loop you can add a data flow task to connect to this server with expression property of data source. http://www.rad.pasfu.com

I used he below command as suggested by you:- WITH perms_cte as ( select USER_NAME(p.grantee_principal_id) AS principal_name, dp.principal_id, dp.type_desc AS principal_type_desc, p.class_desc, OBJECT_NAME(p.major_id) AS object_name, p.permission_name, p.state_desc AS permission_state_desc from sys.database_permissions p inner JOIN sys.database_principals dp on p.grantee_principal_id = dp.principal_id ) --users SELECT p.principal_name, p.principal_type_desc, p.class_desc, p.[object_name], p.permission_name, p.permission_state_desc, cast(NULL as sysname) as role_name FROM perms_cte p WHERE principal_type_desc <> 'DATABASE_ROLE' UNION --role members SELECT rm.member_principal_name, rm.principal_type_desc, p.class_desc, p.object_name, p.permission_name, p.permission_state_desc,rm.role_name FROM perms_cte p right outer JOIN ( select role_principal_id, dp.type_desc as principal_type_desc, member_principal_id,user_name(member_principal_id) as member_principal_name,user_name(role_principal_id) as role_name--,* from sys.database_role_members rm INNER JOIN sys.database_principals dp ON rm.member_principal_id = dp.principal_id ) rm ON rm.role_principal_id = p.principal_id order by 1 But this is only giving me the system privs not database level roles. Can I have a single stored procedure to get sys privs and db roles which accepts an argument a table contaning all instance names?

Can you help me how can I use reporting services for extracting user permmissions / database roles for n number of instances?
