Hello Francois,,
If you'd like to connect to server by using SQL native client, you may need
to install sql client tool which include configuration manager. Actually
configuration manager use WMI API to connect to WMI provider to get sql
native client related information. If you don't want to use configuration
manager, you may need to develop your own code/script to do this job:
