I recently discovered a way of watching network connections in Windows in realtime without using a program like Active Ports. Simply run this command:
netstat -o 1
Check out netstat /? for more options, but this will show and update network connections from the local machine every second.
TO make this a bit more useful, use:
netstat -o 1 find "3389" - I use this example to show only connections using the Remote Desktop Protocol.
Useful to use with a server where 3rd party applications cannot be installed.

Restoring an MSSQL 2000 Database and Creating Correct Logons
If you want to migrate/copy an SQL Server database and login/secrutiy infromation then this script is for you...
I was passed on this script that creates a stored procedure on the source sql server and then after being run in Query Analyzer, creates an SQL script to run on the destination server creating appropriate logons and secrurity after restoring/migrating a database to a different server. Note - if moving/restoring a database to another sql server, restore the database first, then run this script. The script itself is as follows:
USE master
GO
IF OBJECT_ID ('sp_hexadecimal') IS NOT NULL
DROP PROCEDURE sp_hexadecimal
GO
CREATE PROCEDURE sp_hexadecimal
@binvalue varbinary(256),
@hexvalue varchar(256) OUTPUT
AS
DECLARE @charvalue varchar(256)
DECLARE @i int
DECLARE @length int
DECLARE @hexstring char(16)
SELECT @charvalue = '0x'
SELECT @i = 1
SELECT @length = DATALENGTH (@binvalue)
SELECT @hexstring = '0123456789ABCDEF'
WHILE (@i <= @length)
BEGIN
DECLARE @tempint int
DECLARE @firstint int
DECLARE @secondint int
SELECT @tempint = CONVERT(int, SUBSTRING(@binvalue,@i,1))
SELECT @firstint = FLOOR(@tempint/16)
SELECT @secondint = @tempint - (@firstint*16)
SELECT @charvalue = @charvalue +
SUBSTRING(@hexstring, @firstint+1, 1) +
SUBSTRING(@hexstring, @secondint+1, 1)
SELECT @i = @i + 1
END
SELECT @hexvalue = @charvalue

Save as sp_help_revlogin.sql.
As said before, run this firstly on the source sql server in Query Analyzer. This won't show anything outputted to the screen, but will create a stored procedure which can be run by typing: sp_help_revlogin and hitting execute. This will output some sql. Copy and past this sql into the Query Analyzer on the destination server and execute. This will create all logins and appropriate permissions on the destination server.
