Remarks
sp_password calls ALTER LOGIN. This statement supports additional options. For information on changing passwords, see ALTER LOGIN (Transact-SQL).
sp_password cannot be executed within a user-defined transaction.
Permissions
Requires ALTER ANY LOGIN permission. Also requires CONTROL SERVER permission to reset a password without supplying the old password, or if the login that is being changed has CONTROL SERVER permission.
A principal can change its own password.
Examples
A. Changing the password of a login without knowing the old password
The following example shows how to use ALTER LOGIN
to change the password for the login Victoria
to B3r1000d#2-36
. This is the preferred method. The user that is executing this command must have CONTROL SERVER permission.
ALTER LOGIN Victoria WITH PASSWORD = 'B3r1000d#2-36';
GO
B. Changing a password
The following example shows how to use ALTER LOGIN
to change the password for the login Victoria
from B3r1000d#2-36
to V1cteAmanti55imE
. This is the preferred method. User Victoria
can execute this command without additional permissions. Other users require ALTER ANY LOGIN permission.
ALTER LOGIN Victoria WITH
PASSWORD = 'V1cteAmanti55imE'
OLD_PASSWORD = 'B3r1000d#2-36';
GO
