I recently secured a database and was having some problems with passwords. I removed the admin password by clearing it. I also experienced a computer crash with an hour of clearing the password. Afterwards, when I attempted to get into the database I received the message that the user does not have the necessary permisions. THe database and secured file are on a network drive. Did I create this condition by removing the admin password? If so, what is the fix? The security report indicatesd that the system made an unsecured backup. Is this database truly unsecured? WHen I tried opening it last week I got the security login prompts. As fate would have it, our tape backup is down and the last copy of the db is over two weeks old so I would like to attempt fixing this. Thanks for any insight.
