  1. I need some reassurance, folks.

    I already have a SQL Server 2005 database in use on discountasp.net servers. I would like to implement a RoleProvider(as documented in discountasp.net's knowledge base: http://kb.discountasp.net/article.aspx?id=10413)

    Is there any chance that running the aspnet_regsql command-line utility could damage any part of my currently existing database?

    I'm 99.99% sure that no harm can come from running the utility with the following syntax:

    aspnet_regsql.exe -S[discountasp's server name]-U [my database user id] -P [my database password] -A r -d [the name of my current, production database]

    Please advise if you think I'm being overly cautious.

    Thanks!

  2. It shouldn't remove or modify any existing tables or data. it should only install tables and stored procedures.


    If you are concerned with this, I would recommend backing up your database.


    If your site is hosted with discountasp.net we will have a backup of your database. (a small recovery fee may apply)
