Typically, Sql will use port 1433. You need to define that in the connection string and pass username and password to the right db(if you are not using sa) Also, ran profiler on the database instance and trace for failed or attempted logins You will be able to see what's going wrong Thanks On 8/13/11, Athar Ahmad Bhatti <atharab@gmail.com> wrote:
Dear friends
I wish you a lovely day.
I am getting an error on redhat 5 not connecting to microsoft sql via isql. The error is that could not resolve destination host. I have even tried using the ip address of the instance.
Kindly help.
Thanks in advance
Athar
