TCP/IP is not enabled by default on sql express. You have to go into the Configuration Manager (which is a seperate app) and enable the networking protocol. By default, it only turns on shared memory or named pipes, can't recall which off the top of my head, which is fine for .Net apps but no love for jdbc.
