| I am getting this error inconsistently when trying to connect to a Remote SQLExpress server.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: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 – Error Locating Server/Instance Specified) (Microsoft SQL Server)But if I specify the <computer>\<instance>,<port> I can get connected every time.My SQLBrowser service is running and active. I am connecting across a high latency VPN connection.I want to continue to use dynamic ports if possible.Is there a way to verify that I am receiving a response back from the sqlBrowser?If yes is there a way to see what port it is sending back to connect on? |
