I'm not a full-stacker, so forgive me in advance.
I'm trying to connect to a SQL Server 2008 R2 database from a Linux based server (via PHP mssql_connect). I am unable to do so.
The Error we get is: Connection timed out.
We are able to successfully connect to the SQL Server 2008 r2 from a Windows based server using sqlrv.
I'm able to successfully connect to a SQL Server 2012 database (hosted on Arvixe).
We have FreeTDS installed on our server. The mssql module installed and the database credentials added to our freetds.conf -- but still unable to connect.
We've also been whitelisted to access the database.
Is there anything we are missing? Your help is greatly appreciated.
There was a missing IP address from the whitelist. The IP address of the server AND the website needed to be whitelisted.
Also, these IP addresses needed to be allowed to make a remote connection over port 1433 to the database we were attempting to connect to.

I am trying to connect to a SQL Server 2016 database from Excel (Office 365).

I got the credential popup when I connect from Excel (tried with domain account and SQL Server account).
There is no firewall restriction between client and server.
But finally I got this error message:
Where should I check ?
Well, i'm using IP adress instead of server name and it is working. So it should be a DNS issue.
I am trying to connect my TFS-2015 residing on one machine to the SQL Server 2014 residing on another machine.
This is my SQL Server instance name:
This is the error I get on TFS:
Please guide me the fix here.
It could be a firewall setting on the sql server. Can you connect using SSMS from another machine in your network? Are you using the default port? If so is there a firewall rule allowing traffic on 1433?
If connection is not the problem then it looks like a user right issue. The account running TFS and if it is different the account installing TFS will need a proper login to SQL.

Look at your screenshot: You only gave it a SQL instance name (MSSQLSERVER). You have to provide a database server name as well. How is it going to know what server to connect to otherwise?
So, I have two PC (PC-A and PC-B) that I've set up with Windows 7 and SQL Server 2012. I setup a port forwarding for PC-A so I can access it remotely.
I can connect to SQL Server on PC-A from PC-B (using SQL Server Management Studio) by entering the PC-A ip address, but unable to connect if I'm using the server name of SQL Server on the PC-A.
Any ideas to make it works?
Try using tcp:[Server Name],1433
1433 is the default port numberused by sql server
Found a workaround to this problem. I install hamachi on both PCs, register them to a same hamachi network. And now I can connect using the server name.

After this , if problem persist disable firewall on private/domestic net and try again.
I dont have much experience with MsSql. I have no problem to connect to database by SQL management studio with SQL Server Authentication Mode on ip 127.0.0.1.

DIsabled my firewall

Can provide more information if you need. Thanks
EDIT : I deleted everything and installed SQL SERVER 2008 R2. Everything working now. Thanks all for your effort.
Ensure you have installed SQL Server as a "Default instance" in order to be able to connect with just the IP address or hostname. If it's a "Named instance" installation, you will need to specify the hostname and instance name to connect. (i.e. MY_HOST\MY_INSTANCE)
Check out the SQL Server Configuration Manager, and under SQL Server 2008 Services section, does the installation have the "Names instance" in brackets? - That's your named instance.
