<h2 id="synopsis">Synopsis</h2>
<p>Migrates logins from source to destination SQL Servers. Supports SQL Server versions 2000 and newer.</p>
<h2 id="description">Description</h2>
<p>SQL Server 2000: Migrates logins with SIDs, passwords, server roles and database roles.</p>
<p>SQL Server 2005 &amp; newer: Migrates logins with SIDs, passwords, defaultdb, server roles &amp; securables, database permissions &amp; securables, login attributes (enforce password policy, expiration, etc.)</p>
<p>The login hash algorithm changed in SQL Server 2012, and is not backwards compatible with previous SQL Server versions. This means that while SQL Server 2000 logins can be migrated to SQL Server 2012, logins created in SQL Server 2012 can only be migrated to SQL Server 2012 and above.</p>

<p>By default, when something goes wrong we try to catch it, interpret it and give you a friendly warning message.<br />
This avoids overwhelming you with &quot;sea of red&quot; exceptions, but is inconvenient because it basically disables advanced scripting.<br />
Using this switch turns this &quot;nice by default&quot; feature off and enables you to catch exceptions with your own try/catch.<br></p>
