Greetings. Our IIS 6/CF server is on a "10 dot" network, and mapped to an external IP via our firewall appliance.
When trying to set up a DSN to our MS SQL Server, I keep getting a "connection refused" error message. I am using the server name (UNC name) and the correct username/password. The SQL server is across the 'net on another network. The CF/Web server's public IP has open access through the firewall into the network where the SQL server is kept. What's strange, is that I created a system datasource in the ODBC control panel applet, and I connect to the SQL server just fine. I then used the CF Admin to create an ODBC socket DSN to connect to the local DSN on the web server. Any ideas on why I can connect to the remote SQL server via a Microsoft local system DSN, but not directly to the SQL box from CF Admin using the stock SQL server drivers? Any help would be greatly appreciated! -- Alex Sherwood ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Find out how CFTicket can increase your company's customer support efficiency by 100% http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=49 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:201532 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
