Hello,

I would like to copy entire user database from AD to my SQL server including
User Details, username and password. Is it possible to do that? and if yes I
would require you help in doing that. Kindly let me know the ways.

I want to use AD to authenticate current users to access the database so I
want them to move to SQL database.

Thanks in advance.
 
Well... you can't get the user's password from AD - it's encrypted.

But, if you want to use the user's credentials for authenticating angainst
SQL server, just grant the AD logins access to the database and have the
users use Integrated login to the SQL server.

If you really need to store user attributes (other than password) in the SQL
server, just write a VB script, or perhaps use ldifde or something to export
the userdata fra AD and then import to SQL server using dtswiz.
