Never heard we must activate something for the log. What do you see in

|||Hi
SQL Server does not log activity like inserts and deletes. You need to run
SQL Server Profiler to do that.

|||There are log files in the log folder, but the latest one is dated May 17,
2004, which is around the time they were moved there from the location where

Could that have something to do with why the logs stopped recording?

SQL Server does not log activity like inserts and deletes. You need to run
SQL Server Profiler to do that.

Could that have something to do with why the logs stopped recording?

Accessing network drive from SQL Analyzer
Not sure if this posted or not before, so just in case, I'm doing it again.
I have SQL2000 on a Win2000 server. Using windows explorer, I have mapped a
network drive to letter "F"
While in SQL Analyzer, I'm trying to access "F" but I can't. I can access C
and D which are local drives, but not F.
If you are curious, I'm trying to access it by simply doing xp_cmdshell 'dir
f:'
Once this works, I'm planning to use a restore operation which we will read
from that drive.
Does anyone know how to access a mapped network drive from SQL Analyzer? It
will greatly appreciated.
thanks,
PPHi
Did you log onto the SQL Server using the SQL Server service account, map
the drive and then log off again?
If not, that is the way you should do it.
Generally, it is best to use UNC naming (\\machinename\sharename\) when
accessing resources over the network.
Backup and restores have to be done via UNC paths as mapped drives are not
supported for those operations.
