Title:
Unable to connect to server with new pc
I am hoping that someone can give me a hint as to what is wrong.
I have data on a SQL Server that I was successfully accessing. That is until some miscreants broke in to IT last week and stole 10 pcs, including my own!
I was able to reinstall everything on a new pc, but the new pc can not connect to the SQL Server. Both the stolen pc and the new one are Windows 98 machines. All my other network connections are ok.
I get the following message when trying to connect to my stuff:
"A connection could not be established to 66.20.23.125 -- Access denied. ConnectionOpen(CreateFile())."
"Please verify SQL Server is running and check your SQL Server registration properties (by right-clicking on the 66.20.23.125 node) and try again."
When I check the properties by going to the 'edit registered SQL Server properties' screen, I see the following:
Server: 66.20.23.125 (this is correct)
Connection has 'use SQL Server authentication' selected
Login name and password are correct. (This has been verified because I can login on the console in the server room.)
Server group is correct.
Any suggestions?
Marie
