    i received this message
    An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)

    Could you help me.....!

    Your ISP / Firewall / Antivirus software may be blocking the necessary port (1433). Try connect through port 14330.

    woo.. ignore my previous post then. I thought you are getting this error when you try to connect remotely (as suggested by your subject line).


    if you are getting this in your web application, your connection string is probably set wrong.
