I am working with a SQLServer installation where all public permissionshave been revoked from the system.
 
 I currently hold the securityadmin and sysadmin roles to perform my
 logicall access control work (creating logins and adding users to
 databases and changing group memberships.)
 
 There has been a question as to whether or not I need the sysadmin role
 to do my job, so we tried an experiment in dropping the sysadmin role
 from my id.
 
 With no public permissions, I see no user information on the server,
 which really limits my ability to do the job.
 
 Has anyone ever worked with a super-locked-down server without the
 sysadmin role for doing security admin work?
 
 What I'm looking for is hopefully SQL to perform the access privileges
 needed for the security admin role by itself.
 
 Thanks in advance!
