I have a remote Windows Server 2017 with MS SQL Server and I want to connect with it remotely from my machine (but currently I'm unable to).
First of all I want to ask if I get the IP address right (or rather Server Name field in SQL Server prompt in MS SQL Server Management Studio)
mentioned server name field
Let's say IP of the remote server is 135.150.96.96. The instance of the SQL Server on remote server is "TEST". The port is 63011. If I'm one of admins on remote server I assume this server works all the time for all users.
135.150.96.96\TEST,63011
Is this address correct?
I know there are more things to check (services, firewall etc.) that's why I want to be sure I type server name correctly.

I have SQL Server Express running on machine GERSWHIN. On GERSHWIN itself, SSMS connects using: GERSWHIN\SQLEXPRESS.
The server is running on port 1344, and from the Internet, I can telnet into GERSHWIN, exposed as, say, abc.com, on port 1344.
From another computer using SSMS, what should be the string to use in the Server name field to connect to this SQL Server?
I tried abc.com:1344 and abc.com:1344\SQLEXPRESS but both got the same error:
I have SQL Server running on my Windows 10 laptop and I would like to connect to my databases on this server from my macbook.
I have enabled the network access for the SQL Server and have added a SQL login.
After this what other steps should I be taking to connect to the DB?
First make sure your macbook is connect to the server pc with valid ip address,create one user in server with privileges(it depend on your how much access you have to give other user), after that use connection string with created user id and password,mention correct ip addreess in connection string.
String connection = "server= 'ip address of server pc';user id='user_name';database='database_name';password='password'";
I've just reimaged a windows 10 box and installed SQL Server 2012 Management tools, client tools and it has its own SQL Server which works fine.
I'm trying to connect SSMS or Odbcad32 to a SQL Server instance on another machine on the same domain and both SSMS and Odbcad32 won't connect.
Odbcad32 gives this error message:
SqlState: '01000'
SQL Server Error:67
Connection Failed:
SqlState: '08001'
SQL Server Error: 17
SQL Server does not exist or access denied
The SQL Server browser is already started. Client protocols are all on for both 32 and 64 bit. i.e. shared memory, TCPIP and named pipes are all enabled, in that order.
I've googled a million threads on this topic and they all seem to find resolution when one of the two above paragraphs are satisfied, but not in this case.
Any other machine can connect to that SQL Server fine.
I can ping it fine.
Changing the SQL Server computer name to the ip address doesn't help, it still won't connect.
The remote server has an instance name of sql2008, which I am obviously including when I connect in the form machinename\sql2008.
Thanks in advance.
Edit: connecting via Windows auth or SQL Server auth is the same. I am logged in to Windows as domain\administrator. UAC is off on this box.
I use SQL Server Management Studio. I want to connect the local server. But, I am missing the local server name.
I entered local, localhost and ., but it couldn't connect.
How can I get the local server name in SQL Server Management Studio?
Please let me know which path you can check.
A network related or installer-related error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server can not be found or inaccessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections.
Other way to find is , drop down the server name box, at the end there is an option called . click it and there database engine , expand the database engine and u ll find the list of sql servers in your pc/network. Click the required one and u ll get servername .
Just write SELECT ##servername and run in your SQL Server Management Studio.
It will return the name of the current servername you are connected with.
The alias (local) (yes, including the parentheses) should allow you to connect to your local instance, but please supply the actual error that's occurring, in case the hostname isn't the actual problem.
From your question I assume that you're logged on to the machine that is running SQL Server. If so you can open SQL Server Configuration Manager to confirm the name of your SQL Instance. SQL Server Configuration Manager shows all of the SQL Services Running. Look for the one called SQL Server (instanceName) and note the instance name. You can then access the server from SQL Server Management Studio using either (local)\instanceName, .\instanceName, or servername\instanceName.
Hello does any one know that setting I need to ON for connect to SQL Server instance on remove PC.
I have a PC with Windows Datacenter Edition I can connet to this PC by RPD (I know IP) on this machine I have SQL SERVER 2008 and I would like to connect to this SQL from Server from MY Management studio. What Setting on remove DB I need to switch on?
Thanks.
p.s.
Firewall is OFF and Allow remoute connection is on on SQL instance.
1, SQL server must have enabled remote connections.
2, Between your PC and server must not be restrictive firewall.
3, You need to know also instance name
4, You need valid credentials
