sql server connect:
Hello, I have one SQL Server 2000 that has been installed into a domain, having allowed "Windows and SQL Server" authentication and using as connectivity options Named Pipes and TCP/ip - 1433 On every client computer that is also a domain member I can set up without any problems DSNs (data source names), and connect to the SQL Server. My problem is on another computer that is not a member of this domain and on which I can not set any kind of connections to SQL Server, I`ve tried setting up also a DSN (using an SQL Server account)and connect from Excel and even install the SQL Server Connectivity Tools, and tried with Query Analyzer but still I wasnt able to connect to the server. The error I get is: Unable to connect to the SQL Server: The server doesn't exist or access denied. It must be some SQL Server specific settings as the network connectivity is OK Any ideas ...? Thank You, -- Razvan Dragomir, MCSA, Exchange & Windows System Administrator
Try connecting to sql from the non-domain box using QA and an explicit login. If it works, then try same login and password from your app as opposed to using windows auth. -- TheSQLGuru President Indicium Resources, Inc.

Hi, I tried and it doesnt work (i`ve used a valid SQL Login)...there is another interesting thing..SQL is set to answer on port 1433 (default), but if I scan this port from the non-domain workstation it`s like it`s not opened, but it`s the same if i scan it from inside the domain where it also doesn`t respond but I can Connect though... -- Razvan Dragomir, MCSA, Exchange & Windows System Administrator [quoted text, click to view] "TheSQLGuru" wrote: > Try connecting to sql from the non-domain box using QA and an explicit > login.

Firewall issue seems most likely culprit. Or TCP/IP isn't enabled as a network protocol in sql server? Can you connect using QA and explicit ip address as the server name? -- TheSQLGuru President Indicium Resources, Inc.

Hi, Thx for the answers......I don`t have any firewall between the workstations and the server, I`m using TCP/IP and Named Pipes, and it`s working to connect with IP address from QA, from inside the domain...I also don`t have any firewall set for non domain clients...I`m just thinking if by default Win2k3/SQL Server blocks connections from outside the domain... -- Razvan Dragomir, MCSA, Exchange & Windows System Administrator [quoted text, click to view] "TheSQLGuru" wrote: > Firewall issue seems most likely culprit.
