Connect to SQL Server with instance on RDP - sql-server

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

Unable to link SQL Server Express to SQL Server

I have a SQL Server version 12.0 instance installed on a Windows Server 2012R2 (SERVER/SQL), and a SQL Server Express version 11.0 instance installed on a windows 10 workstation (WIN10/SQLEXPRESS). Both are on the same domain. I am logged in as the domain admin and have full rights on both SQL instances.
On my WIN10 machine I am able to create a linked server from (WIN10/SQLEXPRESS) to (SERVER/SQL).
On my SERVER when I attempt to create a linked server from (SERVER/SQL) to (WIN10/SQLEXPRESS) I am told to ensure that the instance will allow for remote connections. I have gone through about 40 hours of troubleshooting this, ensuring that all firewalls, ports, security and agents and browsers are open.
Is there any reason I cannot link a SQL Server Express to another SQL Server, but can the other way around?
I would like to be able to call stored procedures from my main SQL Server but am not able to.
Please note, the purpose for the SQLEXPRESS on the WIN10 machine is due to the vendor requirements for the software I am using. Otherwise I would have the instance on my SERVER.
Almost certianly a network issue.
Using SQL Server Configuration Manager configure SQLEXPRESS to enable TCP/IP and listen on a fixed port, preferably 1433 if no other instance is on the server. Restart the instance.
Create a Windows Firewall rule enable inbound TCP/IP connections to the port.
Test network connectivity to the target port from the other server with powershell, eg:
PS C:\> test-netconnection WIN10 -Port 1433
Test SQL connectivity with SQLCMD or SSMS on the server to the WIN10 box.
Create the linked server.

Getting Server Name Right - Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio 17

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.

Not Connecting to the SQL Server

I installed SQL Server Management Studio on my machine and once it was succesfully installed, I tried to connect to the local Database Engine but I was not succesful connecting to it it showing up an error showing as Cannot connect to the Local or having Network Related problems in the connection. I got a question here once I download the SQL Server management studio Do I need to do something else to get connected to the Local SQL Server.
Thanks,
Pranay.
No you don't need by default you can connect to local machine. You might have a problem connecting from other machine in the network if TCP is not enabled, but local should work.
Make sure you typed your 'sa' password correctly or use Windows Authentication.
Did you check in Windows Services? There is the service SQL Server (SQLEXPRESS) and SQL Server Browser which must be running.
Go to your Sql Server Configuration Manager and make sure that SQL Server is running. Otherwise right click and click Start.
And sometimes you need to Enable TCP/IP in your Protocols again in your Sql Server Configuration Manager

Create ODBC Connection from Access to SQL Server

I need help connecting from a blank access 2010 database to my remote SQL Server 2005 database. This is because I'm going to write all my client apps in Access, and store everything on the server with SQL Server. I'm using the wizard, and trying to make a new DSN. What do I put for:
Which SQL Server do you want to connect to?
Server:
The server is windows server 2008, and it is remote. I've been connecting to it with a .RDP file, but I'm not sure how to set up the link.
Please ask me to clarify anything that doesn't make sense.
Thanks.
Enter the IP address or the Windows Host Name for the server that has SQL Server on it.
You'll need to make sure that your server has port 1433 open in it's internal software firewall. If you're going through any kind of router that router will also need to have port forwarding and possibly the firewall opened up for port 1433.
Also, you'll need to make sure that your SQL Server instance is setup to listen on TCP/IP with port 1433 (unless you choose a different port).
You might be best off trying to connect to it from SQL Server Management Studio first. Once you have that working you should have an easier time setting up your DSN.

Sql server 2000 remote connection

Hi i want to know how to enable remote server connection in sql server 2000. I have sql server 2000 installed in a system with windows server 2003 os. i want to create a dsn connection to the database through remote. I have created a dsn locally in the server it is working. but how to create dsn from the remote system and make it work.
To allow remote connections to the server, do the following:
In SQL Server Enterprise Manager, right-click the server and choose Properties.
On the General tab, click the Network Configuration button and enable Named Pipes, and TCP/IP in the new window. I'm not sure if you need to restart SQL Server after doing this.
After doing this, you should be able to connect to the SQL Server from a remote computer, by referring to e.g. MYSERVER\MyInstanceName.
It helped me.
BTW I've also added sqlservr.exe to my firewall exception list:

Try installing MSDE/connectivity tools on remote system.
