I have my server configured with a static ip, 192.168.0.3. I can remote desktop to the box, and connect to sql server locally via management studio. On my new machine, the one I am remote desktopping from, I am unable to connect via management studio. I have verified that the server is configured to accept connection via tcpip and named pipes.
I get this: TITLE: Connect to Server ------------------------------ Cannot connect to server. ------------------------------ ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections.
