Hi there --
 
I tried connecting to port 1433 of the SQL server, and the connection was
refused. It appears that efforts to connect via the default
port will not work in this case. I took the liberty of running the nestat -abn
command syntax on the console of the SQL server, and
searched for all references to the sqlservr.exe binary. The results are shown
below:

If the default port, 1433, is not reachable would one the above ports be the
alternate means of connecting to the server?

Please let us know if you get it working - I might have to add such a check soon
as well.

To answer your question: 1433 is the standard port of MSSQL so that should be
ok. You can launch nmap or a simple telnet to double-check that.

        The check_mssql plugin is way too fussy about what characters it will
        allow in host names and user names.  On my system I edited the plugin
        to remove the if/else sections entirely below the comments "//
        Validate the hostname" and "// Validate the username".
