Hello Lee,

I would like to know, in Video2, why do you create a NEW login, instead of using the one which has been restored with the database ???
I do not understand. Because, then, when I want to migrate my local to the prod, I will have to delete this account, right ??? (I did not check the other tutorial for local --> prod...)

Why not keeping this user, I do not understand...

I assume that you are referring to the new database login. I believe that the answer is that the login isn't part of the database, but is a property of the database server. Thus, even though the database is restored on the new server, the login name and password aren't also moved from the old server.

Hello jncraig,

Thanks for answering. Yes, I am referring to the database login. When I restore it, the database login is also restored, as explain in the video tutorial. But Lee creates a new one, I do not understand the purpose... Could I use the one which is restored ???

Hello,

I did it for two reasons:
1) to show users how to create a user login
2) to make life easier, errors can occur when restoring a login from another database, so for the newbies it's easier to just create a new login. - if you're restored login works, it's fine to use that login

Thanks,
