5.0 Security on Windows 2000 Best Practices

I previously posted this on mysql.users, but I am guessing that that was
in inappropriate forum, as I did not receive any responses.

Does anyone know of a set of standards for securing MYsql 5.0 on Windows
2000? I already saw the document on mysql.com's website at
http://dev.mysql.com/tech-resources/...l_windows.html,
but something that is missing is precisely what are the minimum
permissions needed for the server? Specifically, which directories need
which access rights?

When installing SQL server 2000 out of the box on a freshly formatted machine, I would like to get some feedback on the following: 1) I believe the 'sa' account should be removed at earliest opportunity, after install.

Hello All! I am writing a management application, which has to access remote machines registry via System.Diagnostics.EventLog.CreateEventSource . For each machine, I connect to, I create a DirectoryEntry and connect to that machine specifying credentials. That's becauase the running user does not has the right permissions . The application is written in C# and the action taken is done with threads from the threadpool.

Hello, I have developed a web application that connects to 2 different database servers. The connection strings with db username + password are stored in web.config file. After a code review, one developer suggested that it's a security flaw; therefore connection strings should be kept somewhere else or encrypted. My argument is that web.config file is protected by IIS and Windows security which is the case. And another argument is that...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
