T-SQL copy Logins, Users, roles, permissions etc - sql

Question

We have implemented log shipping as a database disaster recovery solution and want to know if there is a way I can use T-SQL to script all the logins, users, roles permissions etc to the master database on the secondary server so that the T-SQL can be sheduled to run as an SQL Job?
My aim is that in the event of a D/R situation we can simply restore the transaction logs for each database to the secondary server and not have to worry about orphaned users etc.
Thanks for you help!

Answer 1

There is a login copy script here designed to copy logins to another server for disaster recovery purposes:

Use master;
Go
If Exists (Select 1 From INFORMATION_SCHEMA.ROUTINES
Where ROUTINE_NAME = 'dba_CopyLogins'
And ROUTINE_SCHEMA = 'dbo')
Drop Procedure dbo.dba_CopyLogins
Go
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
GO
Create Procedure dbo.dba_CopyLogins
