surprisingly, couldn't find anything about granting alter trace permissions toa domain account.

Itry to run following sql:

GRANT ALTER TRACE TO MyDomain\User1;
GO

And get the following error when executing:

Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Line 1

Incorrect syntax near '\'.

What is correct SQL to grant alter trace permissions to a domain account?

TIA.

You must enclose the name between brackets:

GRANT ALTER TRACE TO [MyDomain\User1];
