I think you pretty much hit it on the head, Rob. I have a series of
databases on a dedicated server that are designed to compliment a
worthless CMMS bringing more data to a group of guys. for now, the
admin idea would work fine since I'll be the only one accessing 2 of
those databases but eventually, may free up the access to a small
group within a department as usable information. At that point,
either a shared password OR allow known IPs would be effective and
actually, known IPs may be better in that the extra step of entering
something would be bypassed. thanks for the replies, gents.
