Need table of words/glossary/etc.

Hi!

I have a client who wants to have a function to have a system create a validation system for users who register for a system. It would email them a registration code, which they want to be two or three random words strewn together.

So, I'm looking for a big table of words - random, glossary terms, etc. Does anyone have anything like this? (A flat file that I can import would be fine.)

Thanks!I have a dictionary of words in an access db,... by why would you do this, why not generate some random sequence based on something like the data/time they subscribed??|||I have a dictionary of words in an access db,... by why would you do this, why not generate some random sequence based on something like the data/time they subscribed??

Because that would be logical and clients don't operate on logic :)

(They're afraid that random words would be too difficult for the users of the system, most of which are senior citizens.)|||A smart person would suggest sending them a validation link in the email that they can click and autovalidates... but there you go. ;)

So do you want this db? I think it is about 4 megs but I can't be sure...|||This is completely out of my hands. I've made my arguments and I've been shot down. Other people have offered alternatives, they've shot them down too. So, this is what I have to go with.

If you could provide the table, that'd be great.

Thanks!|||how do you want it? http download from somewhere? I can upload it in the next few hours (once I get home).|||Either post it somewhere or email it to rflagg@.gmail.com

Thanks!|||should be in your gmail|||Thanks! That table is great (and very extensive). Much appreciated!|||...sounds like a "lazy hacker" looking for a quick and dirty dictionary attack...maybe wrong though ;)|||And I just helped him,.. great,... ah well, if that is the case then people should protect themselves against such attacks anyway...|||I'm in a similar situation. Could you possible send me a copy of the db ?

Thank you.|||Any way you can prove to me that it's not for dictionary attacks?|||Don't know how I could prove that over the Internet.

Need the db for an assignment at uni..|||I promise you that's not what it's for. I'm a professional, I do ASP.NET and SQL development for a living as full-time work, as contracts on the side, and I maintain two websites that I wrote myself for two non-profit animal rescue groups dedicated to the saving and placement of homeless and stray animals. One of which is Animal Allies (http://www.animalallies.com) which services the Washington D.C. metro area (where I live). If you'd like more evidence of this, you can email me at tarkon@.animalallies.com and I'll respond.

Besides that, there's very little I can do to assure you this is for honest and legitimate purposes other than my personal guarantee (and the fact that I don't even know what a dictionary attack is).

And lastly, it's been my experience most hackers are Linux people and not SQL Server 2000 developers.|||heheh no worries Tarkon, I wasn't that concerned to be honest,... just messing with your head. ;)sql

need script to monitor os free space & errors

I am looking for a script to check the os free space and email if getting below a threshold.
Additionally, I am looking for another script to read the sql server log for errors and to email if error (or a string) is found.
MikeYou can take help of ALERTS in SQL server for free space threshold, refer to books online for more information.

Also can take help of Notification services or third party tools like BMC Patrol to alert if any error occurs in SQL error log/|||Procedure for extracting error from Errorlog and send email:

1) Open a notepad, cut and paste the following sample of errors
that you would like to find:

Error: 3414
Error: 3437
Error: 3619
Error: 8651
Error: 9002
BACKUP failed to complete
consistency errors
Exception Access Violation
.
.
.

and save it as "search_list.txt"

2) Open another notepad, cut & paste the below sample to
extract the error and output to a file (C:\List_error.txt) if
any error in the Errorlog is matched with the "Search_list.txt"
provided above:

IF EXIST DEL C:\List_errorlog.txt
Findstr /i /g:C:\Search_List.txt D\MSSQL\LOG\errorlog >
C:\List_errorlog.txt

osql -Sservername -E -Q"xp_sendmail @.recipients = 'DBA_on_call@.yahoo.com', @.message = 'See attached file for error',@.attachments = 'H:\MSSQL\LOG\List_errorlog.txt', @.subject = 'SQL Server Errorlog'"

save it as a command file like "Search_error.cmd"

3) start the Enterprise Manager and schedule a job that run the
"Search_error.cmd" for every 10 min or whenever...

Goodluck
