As you might know the SSO role will allow management of server login ids but will not allow management of database users that requires 'dbo' role. What is a best way to define a server id that has System Security Officer (SSO) role with ability to manage database users?
 
I got the answer from SYBASE that this is a bug in their system stored procedures mainly sp_adduser, sp_dropuser and sp_modifylogin that does not check for sso_role in 11.0.3.3 release. I created my own copy of these procs under new names and modified the code to allow sso_role and that seem to work fine. Sybase did mention that these problems are fixed in 11.5 + releases.
